Stochastic stability and robust control for sampled-data systems with Markovian jump parameters

In this paper, the problems of stochastic stability and robust control for a class of uncertain sampled-data systems are studied. The systems consist of random jumping parameters described by finite-state semi-Markov process. Sufficient conditions for stochastic stability or exponential mean square stability of the systems are presented. The conditions for the existence of a sampled-data feedback control and a multirate sampled-data optimal control for the continuous-time uncertain Markovian jump systems are also obtained. The design procedure for robust multirate sampled-data control is formulated as linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which can be solved efficiently by available software toolboxes. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed techniques.     

Improved results for stochastic stabilization of a class of discrete-time singular Markovian jump systems with time-varying delay

In this paper, the problem of stochastic stabilization for a class of discrete-time singular Markovian jump systems with time-varying delay is investigated. By using the Lyapunov functional method and delay decomposition approach, improved delay-dependent sufficient conditions are presented, which guarantee the considered systems to be regular, causal and stochastically stabilizable. Finally, some numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained methods.     

Research on mean square exponential stability of networked control systems with multi-step delay

A new control mode is proposed for networked control systems whose network-induced delay is longer than a sampling period. The proposed control mode can make full use of control information and improve the performance of the system. Under the control mode, the mathematical model of networked control systems is obtained. Markov characteristic of the transfer delay is discussed. Based on Markov chain theory, the infinite horizon controller is designed, which is shown to render corresponding networked control systems mean square exponentially stable. Simulation results show the validity of the proposed theory.     

p-Moment Stability of Stochastic Nonlinear Delay Systems with Impulsive Jump and Markovian Switching

Abstract

This article is concerned with the problem of p-moment stability of stochastic differential delay equations with impulsive jump and Markovian switching. In this model, the features of stochastic systems, delay systems, impulsive systems, and Markovian switching are all taken into account, which is scarce in the literature. Based on Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional method and stochastic analysis theory, we obtain new criteria ensuring p-moment stability of trivial solution of a class of impulsive stochastic differential delay equations with Markovian switching.

State feedback controller design for singular positive Markovian jump systems with partly known transition rates

The paper deals with the problem of state feedback controller design for singular positive Markovian jump systems with partly known transition rates. First, by applying an appropriate linear co-positive type Lyapunov–Krasovskii function, stochastic stability of the underlying systems is discussed. Based on the results obtained, a state feedback controller is constructed such that the closed-loop singular Markovian jump system is regular, impulse-free, positive and stochastically stable. All the provided conditions are based on a reliable computational approach in linear programming. Finally, an example is given to demonstrate the validity of the main results.     

Quantized stabilization of discrete-time systems in a networked environment

This paper is concerned with the problem of output feedback stabilization for a class of discrete-time systems with sector nonlinearities and imperfect measurements. A unified control law model is proposed to take the network-induced delay, random packet dropout and measurement quantization into consideration simultaneously. By choosing appropriate Lyapunov functional, a new stability condition, which is dependent on multiple network status, is established for the resulting closed-loop system. Based on the result, a design criterion for the static output feedback controller is formulated in the form of nonconvex matrix inequalities, and the cone complementary linearization (CCL) procedure is exploited to solve the nonconvex feasibility problem. Incidentally, a less conservative synthesis method is also developed for the state feedback stabilization purpose. Finally, two illustrative examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed design method.     

Stability of random impulsive coupled systems on networks with Markovian switching

Abstract

This article is intended to study global asymptotical stability in probability for random impulsive coupled systems on networks with Markovian switching. Two cases are considered. (1) Continuous dynamics are stable while impulses are unstable; (2) impulses are stable while continuous dynamics are unstable. To begin with, based on Lyapunov method as well as graph-theoretic technique, several new stability criteria in two cases are derived, that are, the Lyapunov-type criteria and the coefficients-type criteria. Then main results are used for a class of random impulsive coupled oscillators. Finally, the effectiveness of the obtained results is verified by numerical simulations.     

Delay-dependent stochastic stability of delayed Hopfield neural networks with Markovian jump parameters

In this paper, the problem of stochastic stability for a class of time-delay Hopfield neural networks with Markovian jump parameters is investigated. The jumping parameters are modeled as a continuous-time, discrete-state Markov process. Without assuming the boundedness, monotonicity and differentiability of the activation functions, some results for delay-dependent stochastic stability criteria for the Markovian jumping Hopfield neural networks (MJDHNNs) with time-delay are developed. We establish that the sufficient conditions can be essentially solved in terms of linear matrix inequalities.     

H∞ control of a class of networked control systems with time delay and packet dropout

This paper studies the H-infinity control issue for a class of networked control systems (NCSs) with time delay and packet dropout. The state feedback closed-loop NCS is modeled as a discrete-time switched system. Through using a Lyapunov function, a sufficient condition is obtained, under which the system is exponential stability with a desired H-infinity disturbance attenuation level. The designed H-infinity controller is obtained by solving a set of linear matrix inequalities. An illustrative example is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Robust fault detection of Markovian jump systems with different system modes

This paper deals with the robust fault detection filter (RFDF) design problems for uncertain nonlinear Markovian jump systems with unknown input. By using a observer-based fault detection filter as residual generator, the RFDF design is formulated as an _H∞$H_{\infty }$-filtering problem. Particularly, two different Markov processes are considered for modeling the randomness of system matrix and the state delay. With the aid of the weighting matrix function, the design objective is to find an optimal RFDF, which results in a minimal difference between the reference model and the RFDF to be designed. By using a new convex polyhedron technique and two mode-dependent Lyapunov functional, some new sufficient conditions are established in terms of delay-dependent linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) to synthesize the residual generation scheme. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed techniques.     

Robust H∞ control for linear Markovian jump systems with unknown nonlinearities

This paper studies the problem of stochastic stability and disturbance attenuation for a class of linear continuous-time uncertain systems with Markovian jumping parameters. The uncertainties are assumed to be nonlinear and state, control and external disturbance dependent. A sufficient condition is provided to solve the above problem. An H_∞ controller is designed such that the resulting closed-loop system is stochastically stable and has a disturbance attenuation γ for all admissible uncertainties. It is shown that the control law is in terms of the solutions of a set of coupled Riccati inequalities. A numerical example is included to demonstrate the potential of the proposed technique.

Stabilization of nonlinear networked systems with sensor random packet dropout and time-varying delay

In this paper, a nonlinear stochastic system model is proposed to describe the networked control systems (NCSs) with both random packet dropout and network-induced time-varying delay. Based on this more general nonlinear NCSs model, by choosing appropriate Lyapunov functional and employing new discrete Jensen type inequality, a sufficient condition is derived to establish the quantitative relation of maximum allowable delay upper bound, packet dropout rate and the nonlinear level to the exponential stability of the nonlinear NCSs. Design procedures for output feedback controller are also presented in terms of utilizing cone complementarities linearization algorithm or solving corresponding linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Illustrative examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Observer-based fault detection for networked control systems with network Quality of Services

This paper addresses the problem of the fault detection for linear time-invariant systems over data networks with limited network Quality of Services (QoS). An integrated index _ηk${\eta }_k$, which related with data dropout, network-induced delay and error sequence, is presented to described the non-ideal QoS, the probabilistic switching between different _ηk${\eta }_k$ is assumed to obey a homogeneous Markovian chain. Then by view of the augmented matrices approach, the fault detection error dynamic systems are transferred to Markov jumping systems (MJSs). With the developed model and using the bounded real lemma (BRL) for MJSs, an _H∞$H_{\infty }$ observer-based fault detection filter is established in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) to guarantee that the error between the residual and the weighted faults is made as small as possible. A simulation example is provided to show the effectiveness of the present methods.     

Stochastic stability analysis for joint process driven and networked hybrid systems

The stochastic stability and impulsive noise disturbance attenuation in a class of joint process driven and networked hybrid systems with coupling delays (JPDNHSwD) has been investigated. In particular, there are two separable processes monitoring the networked hybrid systems. One drives inherent network structures and properties, the other induces random variations in the control law. Continuous dynamics and control laws in networked subsystems and couplings among subsystems change as events occur stochastically in a spatio-temporal fashion. When an event occurs, the continuous state variables may jump from one value to another. Using the stochastic Lyapunov functional approach, sufficient conditions on the existence of a remote time-delay feedback controller which ensures stochastic stability for this class of JPDNHSwD are obtained. The derived conditions are expressed in terms of solutions of LMIs. An illustrative example of a dynamical network driven by two Markovian processes is used to demonstrate the satisfactory control performance.
