About

Onur Ayan is a researcher whose work bridges the fields of networked control systems, wireless communications, and real-time robotics. His research focuses on the intersection of communication networks and control theory, with a particular emphasis on designing robust controllers that can operate reliably over wireless channels with inherent delays and uncertainties. Among his most recognized contributions is his work on networked controller design for benchmark robotic platforms. His 2019 paper, "Design of a Networked Controller for a Two-Wheeled Inverted Pendulum Robot," which has garnered 12 citations, demonstrates his model-based approach to addressing one of the central challenges in cyber-physical systems: maintaining stable control of a dynamically unstable system — a self-balancing robot — over W-LAN communication. This work is notable for its practical grounding, tackling real-world wireless network imperfections such as latency and packet loss in a concrete, experimentally relevant setting. Ayan's contributions are particularly valuable to the growing community of researchers working on wireless networked control systems (WNCS) and Industry 4.0 applications, where reliable remote control of physical systems over communication networks is increasingly critical. His research provides both theoretical frameworks and practical tools for students and engineers navigating this multidisciplinary domain.
