Parity space-based fault detection for Markovian jump systems

This article deals with problems of parity space-based fault detection for a class of discrete-time linear Markovian jump systems. A new algorithm is firstly introduced to reduce the computation of mode-dependent redundancy relation parameter matrices. Different from the case of linear time invariant systems, the parity space-based residual generator for a Markovian jump system cannot be designed off-line because it depends on the history of system modes in the last finite steps. In order to overcome this difficulty, a finite set of parity matrices is pre-designed applying a unified approach to linear time invariant systems. Then the on-line residual generation can be easily implemented. Moreover, the problem of residual evaluation is also considered which includes the determination of a residual evaluation function and a threshold. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method

Stabilisation of descriptor Markovian jump systems with partially unknown transition probabilities

This paper is concerned with the stability and stabilisation problems for continuous-time descriptor Markovian jump systems with partially unknown transition probabilities. In terms of a set of coupled linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), a necessary and sufficient condition is firstly proposed, which ensures the systems to be regular, impulse-free and stochastically stable. Moreover, the corresponding necessary and sufficient condition on the existence of a mode-dependent state-feedback controller, which guarantees the closed-loop systems stochastically admissible by employing the LMI technique, is derived; the stabilizing state-feedback gain can also be expressed via solutions of the LMIs. Finally, numerical examples are given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed methods

H∞Model Approximation for Discrete-time Markovian Jump Systems with Mode-dependent Time Delays

This paper considers the problem of computing an approximation system for a discrete-time Markovian jump system with mode-dependent time delays such that the H∞norm of the error system is less than a prescribed scalar. It can be shown that the approximation system is constructed by the solutions of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) with inverse constraints. An efficient algorithm is used to obtain the approximation system and an example is employed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the model approximation algorithm.published_or_final_versio

A Markovian jump system approach for the estimation and adaptive diagnosis of decreased power generation in wind farms

In this study, a Markovian jump model of the power generation system of a wind turbine is proposed and the authors present a closed-loop model-based observer to estimate the faults related to energy losses. The observer is designed through an H∞-based optimisation problem that optimally fixes the trade-off between the observer fault sensitivity and robustness. The fault estimates are then used in data-based decision mechanisms for achieving fault detection and isolation. The performance of the strategy is then ameliorated in a wind farm (WF) level scheme that uses a bank of the aforementioned observers and decision mechanisms. Finally, the proposed approach is tested using a well-known benchmark in the context of WF fault diagnosis

Finite-Time Boundedness of Markov Jump System with Piecewise-Constant Transition Probabilities via Dynamic Output Feedback Control

This paper first investigates the problem of finite-time boundedness of Markovian jump system with piecewise-constant transition probabilities via dynamic output feedback control, which leads to both stochastic jumps and deterministic switches. Based on stochastic Lyapunov functional, the concept of finite-time boundedness, average dwell time, and the coupling relationship among time delays, several sufficient conditions are established for finite-time boundedness and H∞ filtering finite-time boundedness. The system trajectory stays within a prescribed bound. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method

Stability Analysis for Markovian Jump Neutral Systems with Mixed Delays and Partially Known Transition Rates

The delay-dependent stability problem is studied for Markovian jump neutral systems with partial information on transition probabilities, and the considered delays are mixed and model dependent. By constructing the new stochastic Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, which combined the introduced free matrices with the analysis technique of matrix inequalities, a sufficient condition for the systems with fully known transition rates is firstly established. Then, making full use of the transition rate matrix, the results are obtained for the other case, and the uncertain neutral Markovian jump system with incomplete transition rates is also considered. Finally, to show the validity of the obtained results, three numerical examples are provided

Further results on exponential estimates of markovian jump systems with mode-dependent time-varying delays

This technical note studies the problem of exponential estimates for Markovian jump systems with mode-dependent interval time-varying delays. A novel LyapunovKrasovskii functional (LKF) is constructed with the idea of delay partitioning, and a less conservative exponential estimate criterion is obtained based on the new LKF. Illustrative examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed results. © 2010 IEEE.published_or_final_versio

Switching Controller Design for a Class of Markovian Jump Nonlinear Systems Using Stochastic Small-Gain Theorem

Switching controller design for a class of Markovian jump nonlinear systems with unmodeled dynamics is considered in this paper. Based on the differential equation and infinitesimal generator of jump systems, the concept of Jump Input-to-State practical Stability (JISpS) in probability and stochastic Lyapunov stability criterion are put forward. By using backsetpping technology and stochastic small-gain theorem, a switching controller is proposed which ensures JISpS in probability for the jump nonlinear system. A simulation example illustrates the validity of this design
