Controller design for network-based Markovian jump systems with unreliable communication links

This article is concerned with observer and controller design for networked control systems, where the considered plant refers to a class of discrete-time communication delay Markovian jump systems. In the study, random packet losses and output quantization are considered simultaneously. The packet losses considered here includes sensor to controller and controller to actuator sides, which are modeled as two Bernoulli distributed white sequences, respectively. An observer-based control scheme is developed to stabilize the closed-loop systems. Finally, an illustrative example is provided to show the applicability of the proposed control method. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Complexity, 2016
