The problems of delay-dependent exponential passivity analysis and exponential passification of uncertain Markovian jump systems MJSs with partially known transition rates are investigated. In the deterministic model, the time-varying delay is in a given range and the uncertainties are assumed to be norm bounded. With constructing appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional LKF combining with Jensen’s inequality and the free-weighting matrix method, delay-dependent exponential passification conditions are obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities LMI. Based on the condition, desired state-feedback controllers are designed, which guarantee that the closed-loop MJS is exponentially passive. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. 1. Introduction In recent years, more and more attention has been devoted to the Markovian jump systems since they are introduced by Krasovskii and Lidskii 1. It is known that systems with Markovian jump parameters are a set of systems with transition among the models governed by a Markov chain taking values in a finite set. They have the character of stochastic hybrid systems with two components in the state. The first one refers to the mode which is described by a continuous-time finite-state Markov process, and the second one refers to the state which is represented by a system of differential equations. Markovian jump systems have got the virtue of modeling the abrupt phenomena such as random failures and repairs of the components changes in the interconnections of subsystems, sudden environment changes, 2 Journal of Applied Mathematics and so forth, which often takes place in many dynamical systems 2–4. So due to extensive applications of such systems in manufacturing systems, power systems, communication systems, and network-based control systems, recently, many works have been reported about MJSs, which including filtering problems 5–7, stability analysis problems 8–12, and control problems 13–20, and so forth. However, the aforementioned references almost considered that the transition probabilities are known exactly. In some practical applications, the mode information is transmitted through unreliable networks, it may be lost or observed simultaneously. That means the systems mode is neither totally accessible or inaccessible. So the ideal assumption on the transition probabilities inevitably limits the application of the traditional Markovian jump systems theory. Therefore, whether in theory or in practice, it is necessary to further consider more general systems with partially mode information 21–27. Recently, the passivity problems for a variety of practical systems have been attracting renewing attention 28–31. The passivity theory was first proposed in the circuit analysis 32 so it has played an efficient role in both electrical network and nonlinear control systems. The main point of passivity theory is that the passive properties of system can keep the system internal stability. Thus, the passivity theory provides a nice tool for analyzing the stability of a nonlinear system, and the passivity analysis has received a lot of attention and has found applications in diverse areas such as signal processing, complexity, chaos control and synchronization, and fuzzy control 33–38. In 33 authors dealt with global robust passivity analysis for stochastic interval neural networks with interval time varying delays and Markovian jumping parameter; in 34 both delay-independent and delay-dependent stochastic passivity conditions are presented for uncertain neural networks; in 35–37 authors discussed the robust passivity and passification of Markovian jump systems and fuzzy time-delay systems; in 38, the exponential passivity of neural networks with timevarying are studied and the results are extended to two types of uncertainties. In practice, input delays are often encountered in control systems because of the transmission of measurement information. Especially, in networked control systems, sensors controllers, and plants are often connected by a net medium hence it is quite meaningful to study the effect of the input delay in the design of controllers. However, to the best of the authors’ knowledge providing less conservative delay-dependent exponential passification criteria for uncertain MJS with input delays and partially known transition rates to desired performance are still open problems. Motivated by this observation, in this paper, we study the exponential passification problem of nonlinear Markovian jump systems with partially known transition rates, including state and input delays, the aim of this problem is to design a controller such that the resulting closed-loop systems satisfy a certain passivity performance index. Comparing with the large amount of the literature on the analysis of stability of Markovian jump systems, passivity analysis and passification for these systems have many obvious advantages. Thus, research in this area should be of both theoretical and practical importance, which motivates us to carry out the present work. Based on the LKF theory and the free-weighting matrix method, some desired exponentially passification controllers are designed, which guarantee that the closed-loop MJS is exponential passive. Finally, a numerical example is used to illustrate the designed method. Notations. The notations are quite standard. Throughout this letter Rn and Rn×m denote, resp., the n-dimensioned Euclidean space and the set of all n × m real matrices. The notation X ≥ Y resp., X > Y means that X and Y are symmetric matrices, and that X − Y is positive Journal of Applied Mathematics 3 semidefinitive resp., positive definite. · is the Euclidean norm in Rn . I is the identity matrix with compatible dimension. If A is a matrix, λmax A respective λmin A means the largest respective smallest eigervalue of A. Moreover, let Ω, F, Ft t≥0 , P be a complete probability space with a filteration. Ft t≥0 satisfies the usual conditions i.e, the filtration contains all P -null sets and is right continuous. E{·} stands for the mathematical expectation operator with respect to the given probability measure. Denote by L2F0 −τ 2 , 0 : Rn the family of all F0 measurable C−τ 2 , 0 : Rn -valued random variables ϕ {ϕs : −τ 2 ≤ s ≤ 0} such that sup−τ 2 ≤s≤0 Eϕs2 < ∞. The asterisk ∗ in a matrix is used to denote term that is induced by symmetry. Matrices, if not explicitly specified, are assumed to have appropriate dimensions. Sometimes, the arguments of function will be omitted in the analysis when no confusion can be arised. 2. Problem Formulation and Preliminaries Consider the following uncertain MJS with time-varying delays ẋt At, rt xt Ad t, rt xt − τt, rt B1 t, rt ut E1 t, rt ut − τt, rt D0 rt fxt, rt D1 rt ωt. zt Ct, rt xt Cd t, rt xt − τt, rt B2 t, rt ut E2 t, rt ut − τt, rt D2 rt ωt, 2.1 2.2 Here xt ∈ Rn is the state vector, ut ∈ Rp is the control input, zt ∈ Rq is the control output, and ωt ∈ Rl is the exogenous disturbance input which belongs to L2 0, ∞, {rt , t ≥ 0} is a homogenous finite-state Markov process with right continuous trajectories, which takes value in a finite-state space S {1, 2, . . . , N} with generator Π {πij }, i, j ∈ S and has the mode transition probabilities Pr rt Δt j | rt i πij Δt oΔt 1 πii Δt oΔt i / j, i j, 2.3 where Δt > 0, limΔt → 0 oΔt/Δt 0, πij is the transition rete from i to j, and πii − πij , j/ i πij ≥ 0, j / i. 2.4 For notational simplicity, which rt i, i ∈ S, the matrices At, rt , Ad t, rt , B1 t, rt , E1 t, rt , Ct, rt , Cd t, rt , B2 t, rt , E2 t, rt , D0 rt , D1 rt , and D2 rt will be described by Ai t, Adi t, B1i t, E1i t, Ci t, Cdi t, B2i t, E2i t, D0i , D1i , and D2i . We denote that Ai t Ai ΔAi t, E1i t E1i ΔE1i t, Adi t Adi ΔAdi t, Ci t Ci ΔCi t, B2i t B2i ΔB2i t, B1i t B1i ΔB1i t, Cdi t Cdi ΔCdi t, E2i t E2i ΔE2i t, 2.5 4 Journal of Applied Mathematics where Ai , Adi , B1i , E1i , Ci , Cdi , B2i , E2i , and D0i , D1i , D2i are known constant matrices with appropriate dimensions. In this paper, the transition rates of Markov chain are partially known, that is, some elements in matrix Π are unknown. We denote that i j : if πij is know Ikn i Iuk j : if πij is unknow 2.6 i i i moreover, if Ikn {k1i , k2i , . . . , km }, 1 ≤ m ≤ N − 2. / ∅, it is further described as Ikn Remark 2.1. kli ∈ N , l ∈ {1, 2, . . . , m} represents the index of the lth known element in the ith row of transition rate matrix. The case m N − 1 is excluded, which means if we have only one unknown element, one can naturally calculate it from the known elements in each row and the transition rate matrix property. Now the mode-dependent state-feedback controller is taken to be as follows: ut Ki xt, 2.7 then, the closed-loop MJS can be represented as ẋt Ai t B1i tKi xt Adi t E1i tKi xt − τi t D0i fxt, i D1i ωt, zt Ci t B2i tKi xt Cdi t E2i tKi xt − τi t D2i ωt. 2.8 Before proceeding further, we will introduce the following assumptions, definition and some lemmas which will be used in the next section. Assumption 1. The uncertain parameters are assumed to be of the form: ΔAi t ΔAdi t ΔB1i t ΔE1i t ΔCi t ΔCdi t ΔB2i t ΔE2i t T1i F t N1i N2i N3i N4i , T2i i 2.9 where T1i , T2i , and Nki , k 1, 2, 3, 4, i ∈ S are known real constant matrices with appropriate dimensions and Fi t, for all i ∈ S, are unknown time-varying matrix functions satisfying FiT tFi t ≤ I. 2.10 Remark 2.2. It is assumed that all the elements Fi t, for all i ∈ S, are Lebesgue measurable. The matrices ΔAi t, ΔAdi t, ΔB1i t, ΔE1i t, ΔCi t, ΔCdi t, ΔB2i t, and ΔE2i t are said to be admissible if and only if both 2.9 and 2.10 hold. The parameter uncertainty structure as in Assumption 1 is an extension of the so-called matching condition, which has been widely used in the problems of control and robust filtering of uncertain linear systems. Assumption 2. The time-varying delay τi t satisfies 0 ≤ τ1i ≤ τi t ≤ τ2i , τ̇i t ≤ μi , with τ1i , τ2i , and μi being real constant scalars for each for all i ∈ S. Journal of Applied Mathematics 5 Assumption 3. For a fixed system mode rt i ∈ S, there exists a know real constant modedependent matrix Γi diagk1i , k2i , . . . , kni > 0 such that the nonlinear vector function f·, · satisfy the following conditions: f T xt, i fxt, i − Γi xt ≤ 0. 2.11 Definition 2.3 see 39. The MJS 2.8 is said to be passive if there exists a constant δ such that T 2E ≥δ z tωtdt T 2.12 0 holds for all T ≥ 0. Definition 2.4. The MJS 2.8 is said to be exponentially passive from input ωt to output zt, if there exists an exponential Lyapunov function or called the exponential storage funtion V defined on Rn , and positive scalars ρ, γ such that for all ωt, all initial conditions x0, all t ≥ 0, the following inequality holds: LV xt , rt ρV xt , rt − γωT tωt ≤ 2zT tωt. 2.13 Remark 2.5. From Definition 2.4, if ρ 0, then the MJS in the form 2.8 is passive, in other words, exponential passivity implies passivity. It follows from 2.13 that T 2E z tωtdt T ≥ −E{V x0 } − γE T 0 ω tωtdt T δ. 2.14 0 Then from Definition 2.3, we can see that MJS 2.8 is passive. But the converse does not necessarily hold, that is, we can not obtain the exponential passive if systems are passive. Lemma 2.6 see 36. Let Qx QT x, Rx RT x, and Sx depend affinely on x. Then the following linear matrix inequality: Qx Sx >0 ST x Rx 2.15 holds if and only if one of the following conditions holds: 1 Rx > 0, Qx − SxR−1 xST x > 0; 2 Qx > 0, Rx − ST xQ−1 xSx > 0. Lemma 2.7 see 40. Let A, D, S, F, and P be real matrices of appropriate dimensions with P > 0 and F satisfy F T tFt ≤ I. Then the following statement holds. 6 Journal of Applied Mathematics 1 For any scalar ε > 0 DFS DFST ≤ ε−1 DDT εST S. 2.16 2 For any vectors x and y with appropriate dimensions 2xT ADy ≤ xT AP AT x yT DT P −1 Dy. 2.17 Lemma 2.8 see 41.

So, by Definition 2.4, the MJS 2.8 is exponentially passive. This completes the proof. Remark 3.2. It is easy to derive that the MJS 2.8 is exponential mean square stability with ωt 0 if the MJS 2.8 is exponentially passive. Moreover, the result of Theorem 3.1 makes use of the information of the subsystems upper bounds of the time varying delays, which Journal of Applied Mathematics 15 may bring us less conservativeness, and from the free-weighting matrix and Newton-Leibnitz formula, the upper bounds of μi are not restricted to be less than 1 in this paper. Therefore, our result is more natural and reasonable to the Markovian jump systems. Remark 3.3. In order to obtain the gain matrices Ki for convenience in the next section, 3.1 is −1 and use the Lemma 2.7 2.1, we can obtain the equivalent not LMI, if we substitute ε2i by ε2i form of LMI. 3.2. Exponential Passification In this section, we will determine the feedback controller gain matrices Ki , i ∈ S in 2.7, which guarantee that the closed-loop MJS 2.8 is exponentially passive with partially known transition rates. Theorem 3.4. Given a positive constant ε, there exists a state-feedback controller in the form 2.7 such that the closed-loop MJS 2.8 is exponentially passive if there exist positive definite matrices % 1, Q % 2, Q % 3 , Q∗ , Z 1 , Z 2 , positive scalar ε1i , ε2i , and for any matrices Gi , Mi , Ri , Ui , V i , H i , Zii P i , Qi , Q with appropriate dimensions satisfying the following LMIs under the two cases for all i 1, 2, . . . , N. i Case 1.

In the same way, if πii ∈ Iuk From Lemma 2.8, we can see that 3.35 is equivalent to Ai P i P i ATi P i Pj P i < i , so 3.4 can be established. Furthermore, using the same method that 0 for all j ∈ Iuk proposed above, we can deduced that 3.32, 3.33, 3.36–3.38, and 3.40 are equivalent to 3.2 3.3, 3.5–3.7, and 3.8, respectively. In conclusion, the gain matrix of desired controller in the form of 2.7 is given by Ki Yi Pi . This completes the proof. t Remark 3.5. To reduce the conservatism, when estimating Lv5 xt , i, − t−τ 2 ẋT sZ2 ẋsds t−τ1i τi t/2 T t ẋ sZ2 ẋsds, is not simply enlarged as − t−τi t ẋT sZ2 ẋsds, but − t−τi t t−τi t T − t−τ2i τi t/2 ẋ sZ2 ẋsds are considered as well, and different free-weighting matrices are introduced. This method above may lead to obtain improved feasible region for delay-dependent exponential passivity criteria. Remark 3.6. In fact, Theorem 3.1 gives a exponential passivity criteria for MJS 2.8 with τ1i ≤ τi t ≤ τ2i , τ̇i t ≤ μi , where μi is a given constant. In many cases, μi is unknown. Considering this case, a rate-independent criteria for a delay satisfying τ1i ≤ τi t ≤ τ2i is derived as follows by setting Qi Q∗ 0, for all i ∈ S in the proof of Theorem 3.1. 20 Journal of Applied Mathematics 4.

Remark 4.1. In order to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, a numerical example is given which included two cases, that is, case 1, the transition rate matrix is completely known; case 2, some elements in the transition rate matrix are inaccessible. By using Matlab Toolbox, we can obtain the gain matrix Ki , which guarantees that the Markovian jump systems 2.8 is robust exponential passivity. If we choose the switch signal as Figures 1 and 2, we can know that the closed-loop system 2.8 is exponentially stable in the mean square under the state-feedback controllers obtained above, which have been listed in Table 1. 5. Conclusions In this paper, the problems of exponential passification of uncertain MJS have been investigated. To reflect more realistic dynamical behaviors of the system, both the partially known transition rates, state and input delays have been considered. With utilizing the Lyapunov functional method and free-weighting matrix method, delay-dependent exponential passivity conditions are established. Finally, an illustrative example has been given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
