Guaranteed cost control for discrete-time networked control systems with random Markov delays

The guaranteed cost control for a class of uncertain discrete-time networked control systems with random delays is addressed.The sensor-to-controller (S-C) and contraller-to-actuator (C-A) random network-induced delays are modeled as two Markov chains.The focus is on the design of a two-mode-dependent guaranteed cost controller,which depends on both the current S-C delay and the most recently available C-A delay.The resulting closed-loop systems are special jump linear systems.Sufficient conditions for existence of guaranteed cost controller and an upper bound of cost function are established based on stochastic Lyapunov-Krasovakii functions and linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach.A simulation example illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed method.
