Modeling and stabilization of networked control systems with bounded packet dropouts and occasionally missing control inputs subject to multiple sampling periods

The paper is concerned with the modeling and stabilization problem of networked control systems under simultaneous consideration of bounded packet dropouts and occasionally missing control inputs. In particular, the focus of the paper is to capture the case where the packet dropouts and control inputs missing are subject to multiple sampling periods, and not periodic as in existing results. By input-delay approach and then fully considering the probability distribution characteristic of packet dropouts in the modeling, the original linear system is firstly transformed to a switched stochastic time-delay system. Meanwhile, the probability distribution values of stochastic delay taking values in m(m ≥ 2) given intervals can be explicitly obtained, which is of vital importance to analyse the stabilization problem of considered system. Secondly, by means of the average dwell time technique, some sufficient conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities for the existence of desired stabilizing controller are derived. Finally, an illustrative example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed stabilizing controller and some less conservative results are obtained.
