Sliding mode output-feedback control of discrete-time Markov jump systems using singular system method

Abstract The issue of adaptive sliding mode controller design via output knowledge is studied for discrete-time Markov jump systems in this paper by means of using singular system scheme. To force the system state onto the sliding motion, an appropriate switching surface depended on the system output is established. Meanwhile, the reachability of the sliding manifold is guaranteed by synthesizing the robust sliding mode controller and adaptive sliding mode controller for the accessible and inaccessible upper bounds of sliding patch, respectively. By using Lyapunov functional technique, sufficient criteria to guarantee the sliding motion to be stochastically admissible are proposed. Then the reachability conditions of the predesigned switching surface are developed. Finally, simulation results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
