Mode‐independent H∞ filtering for discrete‐time Markov jump linear system with parametric uncertainties and quantized measurements

This paper is concerned with the problem of H_∞ filtering for discrete‐time Markov jump linear system with parametric uncertainties and quantized measurements, when the jumping mode information is not accessible. By converting the quantized errors into a sector‐bounded nonlinearity, the parametric uncertainties and measurements quantization are dealt with in a unified framework. The mode‐independent H_∞ filter is designed, and sufficient conditions are established via Lyapunov function approach, such that for all possible uncertain parameters and quantization errors, the resulting filtering error system is robustly stochastically stable and achieves a guaranteed H_∞ filtering error performance index. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
