The incomplete measurements include both the multiple random communication delays and random packet losses, which are modeled by a unified stochastic expression in terms of a set of indicator functions that is dependent on certain stochastic variable. The nonlinear functions are assumed to satisfy the sector nonlinearities. The purpose of the addressed filtering problem is to design a linear filter such that the filtering-error dynamics is exponentially mean-square stable. By using the linear-matrix-inequality (LMI) method and delay-dependent technique, sufficient conditions are derived which are dependent on the occurrence probability of both the random communication delays and missing measurement. The filter gain is then characterized by the solution to a set of LMIs. A simulation example is exploited to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design procedures

The missing-measurement phenomenon is assumed to occur in a random way, and the missing probability is time-varying with securable upper and lower bounds that can be measured in real time. The multiplicative noise is a state-dependent scalar Gaussian white-noise sequence with known variance. The addressed gain-scheduled filtering problem is concerned with the design of a filter such that, for the admissible random missing measurements, nonlinear parameters, and external noise disturbances, the error dynamics is exponentially mean-square stable. The desired filter is equipped with time-varying gains based primarily on the time-varying missing probability and is therefore less conservative than the traditional filter with fixed gains. It is shown that the filter parameters can be derived in terms of the measurable probability via the semidefinite program method.This work was supported in part by the Leverhulme Trust of the U.K., the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the U.K. under Grant GR/S27658/01, the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61028008, 61074016 and 60974030, the Shanghai Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant 10ZR1421200, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany

Probability-dependent gain-scheduled control for discrete stochastic delayed systems with randomly occurring nonlinearities

This is the post-print version of the Article. The official published version can be accessed from the links below - Copyright @ 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.In this paper, the gain-scheduled control problem is addressed by using probability-dependent Lyapunov functions for a class of discrete-time stochastic delayed systems with randomly occurring sector nonlinearities. The sector nonlinearities are assumed to occur according to a time-varying Bernoulli distribution with measurable probability in real time. The multiplicative noises are given by means of a scalar Gaussian white noise sequence with known variances. The aim of the addressed gain-scheduled control problem is to design a controller with scheduled gains such that, for the admissible randomly occurring nonlinearities, time delays and external noise disturbances, the closed-loop system is exponentially mean-square stable. Note that the designed gain-scheduled controller is based on the measured time-varying probability and is therefore less conservative than the conventional controller with constant gains. It is shown that the time-varying controller gains can be derived in terms of the measurable probability by solving a convex optimization problem via the semi-definite programme method. A simulation example is exploited to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design procedures.This work was supported in part by the Leverhulme Trust of the UK, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the UK under Grant GR/S27658/01, the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61028008, 61134009, 61074016, 61104125 and 60974030, the Shanghai Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant 10ZR1421200, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany
