Robust Asynchronous Output-Feedback Controller Design for Markovian Jump Systems With Output Quantization

In this article, an asynchronous output-feedback controller is proposed for a class of Markovian jump systems (MJSs) with generally bounded transition rates (TRs). Specifically, two cases have been considered, one of which assumes the TR being completely unknown, while the other specifies the TR range. In particular, the designed asynchronous output-feedback controller is independent of the system modes, implying a sustainable controlling behavior against unavailable system modes. It is worth noting that the mode-dependent controller can be treated as a special case of the independent one. Furthermore, the existing conditions of such a controller are acquired in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Finally a practical example, concerning a single-machine infinite-bus power system, is given to confirm the feasibility of the proposed controller.
