Asynchronous output feedback control for fuzzy Markovian jump systems via sliding mode

This paper investigates the design problem of asynchronous output feedback controller via sliding mode for a class of discrete-time fuzzy Markovian jump systems. Considering the non-synchronization phenomenon between the Markovian jump systems and the sliding controller, an asynchronous control method with a stochastic variable is adopted to describe the connections of the systems and controller. On the other hand, not full of states are accessible for the controller since it is impossible or very expensive to estimate all of states, while the output information can be acquired to the controller all the time. Based on the above aspects, the asynchronous output feedback controller via sliding mode for fuzzy Markovian jump systems is investigated to ensure the sliding mode dynamics to be stochastically stable, besides, several sufficient conditions are given to find a set of feasible solutions of the controller parameters. The asynchronous sliding mode control law is synthesized to guarantee the reachability of the trajectories of the closed-loop systems. Finally, a simulation example is to verify the effectiveness of the control strategy. (C) 2019 Published by Elsevier Ltd on behalf of The Franklin Institute.
