Abstract: | This paper presents a bounded real lemma for discrete‐time Markovian jump singular systems. First, a new necessary and sufficient condition is proposed in terms of a strict linear matrix inequality, which guarantees the stochastic admissibility of the unforced Markovian jump singular systems. Then, a bounded real lemma for discrete‐time Markovian jump singular systems is derived. It is also proven that the bounded real lemma can be described by a strict matrix inequality. Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed theory. The results are more tractable and reliable in numerical computations than existing conditions. |
