Event-triggered nonfragile predictive control for networked control system with redundant channels

This paper is concerned with the nonfragile predictive control problem for the networked control system (NCS) with input delay and network-induced time delays (NITDs). First, the transmission strategy governed by redundant channels is introduced to reduce the occurrence of data packet dropout between the sensor and the observer. Moreover, the event-triggered mechanism (ETM) is employed to save the network resources, where the maximum triggered interval is given. Subsequently, a nonfragile networked predictive control scheme (NPCS) is designed to address the input delay and the NITDs. Accordingly, the sufficient criterion ensuring mean-square exponential stability (MSES) is derived by employing the Lyapunov-Krasovskii stability theorem. Both the observer gain matrix (OGM) and the controller gain matrix (CGM) are gained through solving the nonlinear minimization problem with convex constraints. Finally, a simulation example is utilized to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed main results.
