Robust reliable passive control of uncertain stochastic switched time-delay systems

This paper investigates the problem of robust reliable passive control for a class of uncertain stochastic switched time-delay systems with actuator failures. The multiple Lyapunov functions (MLFs) technique is exploited to derive a delay-dependent sufficient condition for the stochastic switched time-delay systems to be passive and exponentially stable under a state-based switching law. Moreover, the proposed approach is extended to investigate stochastic switched systems with structured uncertainties. Finally, two numerical examples are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. © 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
