Feng, Z.Shi, P.2018-08-232018-08-232017IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2017; 62(8):4266-42730018-92861558-2523http://hdl.handle.net/2440/113843Date of publication March 24, 2017An investigation has been made into the sliding mode control (SMC) problem for singular stochastic Markov systems (SSMSs) in this paper. By using replacement of matrix variables, a newmean square admissibility criterion of SSMSs is proposed first. Based on this admissibility criterion, the desired state-feedback controller is designed to guarantee the closed-loop system to be mean-square admissible. Then, the obtained results given in the form of strict linear matrix inequalities are applied to solve SMC problem of SSMSs. In order to illustrate the workability and applicability of the theoretic results developed, numerical examples are provided.en© 2017 IEEESingular systems; sliding mode control (SMC); stochastic markov systemsJournal article003009588710.1109/TAC.2017.26870480004063959000612-s2.0-85027418884434022Shi, P.
