It provides a unified framework for sliding mode control of Markovian jump systems with uncertain delays and transition probabilities, but the results are incremental extensions of existing LMI-based methods.

This paper addresses stochastic stability and sliding mode control for Markovian jump systems with mode-dependent time-varying delays and partly unknown transition probabilities, deriving LMI-based conditions for stability and controller design, and proposing an adaptive controller for unknown delays.

This paper deals with the problems of stochastic stability and sliding mode control for a class of continuous-time Markovian jump systems with mode-dependent time-varying delays and partly unknown transition probabilities. The design method is general enough to cover a wide spectrum of systems from those with completely known transition probability rates to those with completely unknown transition probability rates. Based on some mode-dependent Lyapunov-Krasovski functionals and making use of the free-connection weighting matrices, new delay-dependent conditions guaranteeing the existence of linear switching surfaces and the stochastic stability of sliding mode dynamics are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Then, a sliding mode controller is designed such that the resulted closed-loop system's trajectories converge to predefined sliding surfaces in a finite time and remain there for all subsequent times. This paper also proposes an adaptive sliding mode controller design method which applies to cases in which mode-dependent time-varying delays are unknown. All the conditions obtained in this paper are in terms of LMI feasibility problems. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
