Robust H_∞ control for uncertain Markovian jump systems with mixed delays

We scrutinize the problem of robust H∞control for a class of Markovian jump uncertain systems with interval timevarying and distributed delays. The Markovian jumping parameters are modeled as a continuous-time finite-state Markov chain. The main aim is to design a delay-dependent robust H∞control synthesis which ensures the mean-square asymptotic stability of the equilibrium point. By constructing a suitable Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional（LKF）, sufficient conditions for delay-dependent robust H∞control criteria are obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities（LMIs）. The advantage of the proposed method is illustrated by numerical examples. The results are also compared with the existing results to show the less conservativeness.

Robust H_∞ control of uncertain systems with two additive time-varying delays

This paper is concerned with the problem of delay-dependent robust H∞control for a class of uncertain systems with two additive time-varying delays. A new suitable Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional（LKF） with triple integral terms is constructed and a tighter upper bound of the derivative of the LKF is derived. By applying a convex optimization technique, new delay-dependent robust H∞stability criteria are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities（LMI）. Based on the stability criteria, a state feedback controller is designed such that the closed-loop system is asymptotically stable.Finally, numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Comparison results show that our results are less conservative than the existing methods.

Improved delay-dependent robust H_∞ control of an uncertain stochastic system with interval time-varying and distributed delays

In this paper, the robust H∞control problem for a class of stochastic systems with interval time-varying and distributed delays is discussed. The system under study involves parameter uncertainty, stochastic disturbance, interval time-varying,and distributed delay. The aim is to design a delay-dependent robust H∞control which ensures the robust asymptotic stability of the given system and to express it in the form of linear matrix inequalities（LMIs）. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The results are also compared with the existing results to show its conservativeness.

Low-Density Parity-Check Codes: Research Status and Development Direction

In this paper, we conclude five kinds of methods for construction of the regular low-density parity matrix H and three kinds of methods for the construction of irregular low-density parity-check matrix H. Through the analysis of the code rate and parameters of these eight kinds of structures, we find that the construction of low-density parity-check matrix tends to be more flexible and the parameter variability is enhanced. We propose that the current development cost should be lower with the progress of electronic technology and we need research on more practical Low-Density Parity-Check Codes (LDPC). Combined with the application of the quantum distribution key, we urgently need to explore the research direction of relevant theories and technologies of LDPC codes in other fields of quantum information in the future.

Delay-dependent Non-fragile H_∞ Control for Linear Systems with Interval Time-varying Delay

This paper considers the problem of delay-dependent non-fragile H∞control for a class of linear systems with interval time-varying delay. Based on the direct Lyapunov method, an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional(LKF) with triple-integral terms and augment terms is introduced. Then, by using the integral inequalities and convex combination technique, an improved H∞performance analysis criterion and non-fragile H∞controller are formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities(LMIs), which can be easily solved by using standard numerical packages. At last, two numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the obtained results.

Bounded Real Lemmas for Fractional Order Systems

This paper derives the bounded real lemmas corresponding to L∞norm and H∞norm(L-BR and H-BR) of fractional order systems. The lemmas reduce the original computations of norms into linear matrix inequality(LMI) problems, which can be performed in a computationally efficient fashion. This convex relaxation is enlightened from the generalized Kalman-YakubovichPopov(KYP) lemma and brings no conservatism to the L-BR. Meanwhile, an H-BR is developed similarly but with some conservatism.However, it can test the system stability automatically in addition to the norm computation, which is of fundamental importance for system analysis. From this advantage, we further address the synthesis problem of H∞control for fractional order systems in the form of LMI. Three illustrative examples are given to show the effectiveness of our methods.
