Robust H∞ Output Feedback Control Design for Takagi-Sugeno Systems with Markovian Jumps: A Linear Matrix Inequality Approach

Abstract

This paper investigates the H∞ output feedback control design for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with Markovian jumps which can be described by Takagi-Sugeno models. Based on a linear matrix inequality (LMI), LMI-based sufficient conditions for the existence of a robust output feedback controller, such that the L2-gain from an exogenous input to a regulated output is less than or equal to a prescribed value, are derived. An illustrative example is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design techniques.
