Design of Sliding-Mode-Based Control for Nonlinear Systems With Mixed-Delays and Packet Losses Under Uncertain Missing Probability

This paper is coped with the robust sliding-mode-based control problem for a class of discrete nonlinear systems in the presence of mixed-delays and packet losses with uncertain missing probability. Both the time-varying state delays and the infinite distributed state delays are considered. Also, the data packet losses are modeled by a Bernoulli distributed stochastic variable with uncertain missing probability and an update rule is employed to characterize the signal transmitted to controller side. A sliding function is first constructed and the desired stochastic mean-square stability of sliding motion is ensured by providing a sufficient condition based on the matrix inequality technique. Besides, a new discrete SMC strategy is designed to guarantee that the state trajectories are driven onto the bounded band of predesigned sliding surface and maintain them therein during subsequent time. Finally, the effectiveness of the developed sliding-mode control technique is verified by some simulations with comparative results.

This paper addresses the robust sliding-mode-based control problem for a class of discrete nonlinear systems in the presence of mixed-delays and packet losses with uncertain missing probability. A new discrete sliding-mode-control strategy is proposed to ensure that state trajectories are driven onto the bounded band of a predesigned sliding surface and maintained within it. The effectiveness of the developed technique is verified through simulations with comparative results.
