Abstract
In this study, the output-feedback control (OFC) strategy design problem is explored for a type of Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy singular perturbed system. To alleviate the communication load and improve the reliability of signal transmission, a novel stochastic communication protocol (SCP) is proposed. In particular, the SCP is scheduled based on a nonhomogeneous Markov chain, where the time-varying transition probability matrix is characterized by a polytope-structure-based set. Different from the existing homogeneous Markov SCP, a nonhomogeneous Markov SCP depicts the data transmission in a more reasonable manner. To detect the actual network mode, a hidden Markov process observer is addressed. By virtue of the hidden Markov model with partly unidentified detection probabilities, an asynchronous OFC law is formulated. By establishing a novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional with a singular perturbation parameter and a nonhomogeneous Markov process, a sufficient condition is exploited to guarantee the stochastic stability of the resulting system, and the solution for the asynchronous controller is portrayed. Eventually, the validity of the attained methodology is expressed through a practical example.
