Robust finite–time stochastic stabilization and fault–tolerant control for uncertain networked control systems considering random delays and probabilistic actuator faults.

This paper focuses on the problem of reliable finite–time stochastic stability (FTSS) for uncertain networked control systems (NCSs). A Markovian jump system (MJS) model with partly unknown transition probabilities (TPs) for the NCSs with random delays, data packet dropouts (disorders as well) and stochastic actuator faults is established to describe the closed–loop system. A mode-dependent static output feedback controller is designed taking only the measured outputs into account. A new criterion is also derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) to ensure reliable FTSS of the closed–loop system, based on the stochastic stability theory. Simulation studies on a benchmark numerical example, as well as an unstable numerical example can verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
