Event-based H∞ filtering for discrete-time Markov jump systems with network-induced delay

The problem of event-based H_∞ filtering for discrete-time Markov jump system with network-induced delay is investigated in this paper. For different jumping modes, different event-triggered communication schemes are constructed to choose which output signals should be transmitted. Through the analysis of network-induced delay’s intervals, the discrete-time system, the event-triggered scheme and network-induced delay are unified into a discrete-time Markov jump filter error system with time-delay. Based on time-delay system analysis method, criteria are derived to guarantee the discrete-time Markov jump error system stochastically stable with an H_∞ norm bound. The correspondent filter and the event-based parameters are also given. A numerical example is given to show that the proposed filter design techniques are effective and event-triggered communication scheme can save limited network resources greatly.     

Event-triggered synchronization of delayed neural networks with actuator saturation using quantized measurements

This paper studies event-triggered synchronization control problem for delayed neural networks with quantization and actuator saturation. Firstly, in order to reduce the load of network meanwhile retain required performance of system, the event-triggered scheme is adopted to determine if the sampled signal will be transmitted to the quantizer. Secondly, a synchronization error model is constructed to describe the master-slave synchronization system with event-triggered scheme, quantization and input saturation in a unified framework. Thirdly, on the basis of Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, sufficient conditions for stabilization are derived which can ensure synchronization of the master system and slave system; particularly, a co-designed parameters of controller and the corresponding event-triggered parameters are obtained under the above stability condition. Lastly, two numerical examples are employed to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.     

An event-triggered asynchronous H∞ filtering for singular Markov jump systems with redundant channels

In this paper, the problem of asynchronous H_∞ filtering for singular Markov jump systems with redundant channels under the event-triggered scheme is studied. In order to save the resource of bandwidth limited network and improve quality of data transmission, we utilize event-triggered scheme and employ redundant channels. The redundant channels are modeled as two mutually independent Bernoulli distributed random variables. To formulate the asynchronization phenomena between the system modes and the filter modes, the hidden Markov model is proposed so that the filtering error system has become a singular hidden Markov jump system. The criterion of regular, causal and stochastically stable with a certain H_∞ performance for the filtering error system has been obtained. The co-design of asynchronous filter and the event-triggered scheme is proposed in terms of a group of feasible linear matrix inequalities. Two examples are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Event-triggered dissipative state estimation for Markov jump neural networks with random uncertainties

This paper is concerned with the problem of event-triggered dissipative state estimation for Markov jump neural networks with random uncertainties. The event-triggered mechanism is introduced to save the limited communication bandwidth resource and preserve the desired system performance. The phenomenon of randomly occurring parameter uncertainties is considered to increase utilizability of the proposed method. To describe such a randomly occurring phenomenon, some mutually independent Bernoulli distributed white sequences are adopted. A mode-dependent state estimator is designed in this paper, which ensures that the estimation error system is extended stochastically dissipative. By using the Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional approach and an optimized decoupling approach, an expected state estimator can be built by solving some sufficient conditions. Two numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Pinning synchronization of delayed complex networks under self-triggered control

In this paper, the pinning synchronization of delayed complex networks (DCNs) is investigated under self-triggered control (STC). The framework of synchronization analysis of DCNs under STC is established. Specifically, a new dynamic event-triggered scheme (DETS) is proposed for the DCNs firstly. The scheme concerns internal dynamic variables, which plays a crucial role in ensuring the exclusion of Zeno behavior. Secondly, to avoid continuous monitoring triggering condition, an effective self-triggered scheme (STS) is proposed. Different from the previous works, based on the extended Grönwall inequality, the lower bound for the inter-event time of the STS is estimated explicitly. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.     

Event-triggered H∞ filtering control for a class of distributed parameter systems with Markovian switching topology

The H_∞ filtering problem for distributed parameter systems with stochastic switching topology is investigated in this paper based on event-triggered control scheme. The switching topology which subjects to a Markovian chain is considered in filter design because of the communication uncertainty of practical networks. An event-triggered mechanism as a sampling scheme is developed aiming at the benefit of reducing the computation load or saving the limited network resources. Based on some novel integral inequalities, the improved delayed method is proposed for the H_∞ filtering control problem with event-triggered scheme. Moreover, by employing stochastic stability theory, filters with Markovian jump parameters are designed to guarantee that the stochastically mean square stability and H_∞ performance of the underlying error system. Finally, in order to illustrate the applicability of the obtained results, numerical examples are presented.     

Reliable control for event-triggered singular Markov jump systems with partly unknown transition probabilities and actuator faults

In this paper, the problem of reliable controller design for event-triggered singular Markov jump systems with partly known transition probabilities, nonlinear perturbations and actuator faults is studied. To mitigate the burden of data transmissions over network, two event-triggered schemes with different triggering conditions are introduced. The switch law between the two event-triggered schemes is governed by a random variable with Bernoulli distribution. Taking nonlinear perturbations and actuator faults into account, the resulting closed-loop system is converted into a time-delay singular Markov jump system with partly known transition probabilities. Sufficient conditions of stochastically admissible for the resulting closed-loop system are obtained in terms of a group of linear matrix inequalities. The co-design of desirable reliable controller and weighting matrices of event-triggered schemes is presented. Finally, two numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the developed results.     

Event-triggered H∞ control for network-based uncertain Markov jump systems under DoS attacks

This paper investigates the event-triggered $H_{\infty }$ control problem for network-based Markov jump systems subject to denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. In order to reduce the amount of signal transmission, the event-triggering scheme (ETS) is adopted between sensor and controller. Due to DoS attacks invalidating data over networks, a new switched time-delay Markov jump model with unstable subsystems is developed based on state feedback controller. Then with the help of piecewise Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional method, a set of sufficient conditions incorporating constraints of DoS attacks are provided, which guarantees that the resulting switched time-delay Markov jump system is stochastically stable with a certain $H_{\infty }$ performance. Subsequently, we present criterions to obtain the parameters of state feedback gain and ETS. Finally, an example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The aim of this paper is to design a mode-dependent filter ensuring the stochastic stability of the resulting filtering error system. To reduce the burden of communication network, the event-triggered scheme and quantized measurement are employed. By constructing a new Lyapunov functional, the filter design methodology is put forward. Finally, two numerical examples are proposed to demonstrate the usefulness of the filter design methodology.     

Quantized control of event-triggered networked systems with time-varying delays

The paper is a study of quantized control for stochastic Markov jump systems with interval time-varying delays and bounded system noise under event-triggered mechanism. A new scheme of Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional which contains the quadratic terms and integral terms is presented. Then quadratic convex technology, the theory of stochastic switching system, and logarithmic quantizer are applied to this paper. The design of quantized controller is obtained with those methodologies. Different from previous results, our derivation applies the idea of second-order convex combination. The conservatism of stability criteria for systems is reduced by using this method. A numerical example under different conditions is given to demonstrate the effectiveness and validity of the new design techniques.

Event-triggered stabilisation for stochastic delayed differential systems with exogenous disturbances

In this paper, the practically input-to-state stabilization issue is considered for the stochastic delayed differential systems (SDDSs) with exogenous disturbances. To reduce the transmission frequency of the feedback control signal, the proposed SDDSs are stabilized by an event-triggered strategy. The concept of the practically input-to-state stability (ISS) is used to describe the dynamic performance of control target in the event-triggered schemes and exogenous disturbances. Besides, the considered SDDSs is stabilized by an event-triggered feedback controller which is represented by linear matrix inequalities. Moreover, lower bound of the interaction time of the event-triggered control method is obtained to avoid the Zeno behavior of the proposed event-triggering scheme. Finally, the effectiveness of the conclusion is verified by a numerical example.

This article investigates the control problem of networked Markov jump systems (MJSs). First, to describe the asynchronization between the plant modes and the controller modes in MJSs, the hidden Markov model is introduced and the asynchronous control technique is developed. Next, the dynamic event-triggered mechanism (ETM) is utilized to decrease the frequency of data transmission. Moreover, the round-robin protocol (RRP) is introduced to reduce the amount of communicated data by allowing only one node to access the network. At last, the concept of input-output finite time stability (IO-FTS) is introduced and taken into consideration in the controller design. The highlight of this work is the introduction of both the dynamic ETM and the RRP to alleviate the communication load. Finally, a simulation example is proposed to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

An event-triggered based robust control for electro-hydraulic servo machines with active disturbances rejection

From an interdisciplinary perspective, the event-triggered scheme, the state observer, and the nonlinear disturbance observer are introduced in a robust tracking control to study the networked electro-hydraulic servo system control problems with digital communication challenge, sensor installation restricted problem, matched modeling uncertainties, and mismatched disturbances. Control packets are likely to be delayed or even lost in the networked control system when the communication medium is shared by multiple nodes and the available communication bandwidth is limited. Therefore, it is necessary to save communication resources. To improve the control performance and the efficiency of the network resource utilization, the event-triggered scheme is introduced. Specifically, the practical application of the event-triggered scheme in an actual electro-hydraulic servo system is a breakthrough in this paper. In addition, to obtain the real-time states of the unmeasurable system and compensate for both matched disturbances and external disturbances simultaneously, the state observer and the nonlinear disturbance observer are collaboratively designed. Finally, to evaluate the control performance of the designed controller, the related comparative experiments are carried out in an actual system. The results show that theoretical analysis and experimentation are cross verified.     

Optimal actuator switching synthesis of observer-based event-triggered state feedback control for distributed parameter systems

The study aims to explore the optimal actuator switching scheme of observer-based event-triggered state feedback control for distributed parameter systems. The performance of distributed parameter systems is improved through the observer-based event-triggered control, in which the state feedback is updated only when a triggered event happens. In such an event-triggered mechanism, the event-based closed-loop system and minimum time interval between consecutive events are bounded. Based on finite horizon linear quadratic regulator (LQR) optimal control, the optimal switching algorithm is proposed based on the event-triggered mechanism during an unfixed time interval. Finally, the proposed scheme is verified through a simulation case.
