Keywords: Markovian jumping parameters Global exponential stability Linear matrix inequality Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional Generalized eigenvalue problems
a b s t r a c t This paper deals with the global exponential stability analysis of neutral systems with Markovian jumping parameters and interval time-varying delays. The time-varying delay is assumed to belong to an interval, which means that the lower and upper bounds of interval time-varying delays are available. A new global exponential stability condition is derived in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI) by constructing new Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals via generalized eigenvalue problems (GEVPs). The stability criteria are formulated in the form of LMIs, which can be easily checked in practice by Matlab LMI control toolbox. Two numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and less conservativeness of the proposed methods. 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
1. Introduction It is well known that, the applications of Markovian jumping parameters are more comprehensive, for instance, in economic systems [1], solar thermal receiver systems [2] and communication systems [3], etc. Markovian jumping parameters are a special class of hybrid systems with two components of mode and state. The dynamics of the jump mode and continuous state are respectively modeled by finite state Markov jumping parameters and differential equations. These systems are usually appropriate to describe dynamic systems subject to abrupt variation in their structures and parameters, such as sudden environment changes, subsystem switching, system noises, executor faults and failures occurred in components or interconnections, etc. Time delay phenomenon is often encountered in many practical systems, for example, aircraft stabilization, biological systems, chemical systems, hydraulic systems, metallurgical processing systems, nuclear reactor and electrical networks. It is well known that the existence of time delays in a system may cause instability or bad system performance. Hence the problem of stability of time-delay systems has received considerable attention in the last two decades, see for example [4] and the references therein. A neutral time-delay system contain delays both in its state and in its derivatives of state. Such system can be found in such places as population ecology, distributed networks containing lossless transmission lines, heat exchangers, robots in contact with rigid environments, etc. Because of its wider application, the problem of the stability of delay-differential neutral system has received considerable attention by many scholars in the last two decades. Neutral delay systems constitute a more general class than those of the retarded type. Stability of these systems proves to be a more complex issue because the system involves the derivative of the delayed state. Especially, in the past few decades increased attention has been devoted to the problem of robust delay-independent stability or delay-dependent stability and

stabilization via different approaches for linear neutral systems with delayed state and/or input and parameter uncertainties. Therefore, the problem of the stability and stabilization of neutral time-delay systems has attracted considerable attention during the past few years, see for example [5–23]. Markovian jump system (MJSs) which initially introduced by Krasovskii and Lidskii [24] in 1961 are a special class of hybrid systems [25–27]. These systems have two components in the state vector. The first one which varies continuously is referred to be the continuous state of the system and the second one which varies discretely is referred to be the mode of the system. For MJS, the random jumps in system parameters are governed by a Markov process which takes values in a finite set as well. MJS is a suitable mathematical model to represent a class of dynamic systems due to random abrupt variations in their structures, and has many applications such as manufacturing systems, communication systems [28], and fault-tolerant systems. The stability analysis and controller synthesis problems for MJS have been extensively studied see for example [27,29], and references therein. To the best of the authors’ knowledge the problem of delay-range dependent exponential stability results for Markovian jumping neutral systems with interval time-varying delays has not been fully investigated and it is very challenging. In this paper, we discuss the problem of global exponential stability for norm-bounded uncertain neutral Markovian jumping systems (MJSs) with interval time-varying delays. We aim at dynamics of the neutral stochastic stability for all admissible uncertainties as well as interval time-varying delays. By selecting appropriate Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals, we give the sufficient conditions so that the analysis problem can be tackled in the form of LMIs, which can be easily calculated by MATLAB LMI control toolbox [30] and the associated synthesis problem can be dealt which by solving the generalized eigenvalue problem (GEVP). In order to illustrate the proposed results, we provide real-world examples, that is, partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC) model presented in [31–33]. With the abrupt variation in its structures and parameters, we can present the PEEC model as a stochastic jump one. Notations.

2. Problem description and preliminaries Given a probability space (X, F, P) where X is the sample space, F is the algebra of events and P is the probability measure defined on F. Let the random process {rt,t P 0} be the Markov stochastic process taking values on a finite set M = {1, 2, . . . , N} with transition rate matrix P = {pij, i,j 2 M} and define the following transition probability from mode i at time t to mode j at time t + Dt as:
Pðr tþDt ¼ jjr t ¼ iÞ ¼

Therefore, the quasi-convex optimization problem can be solved by using MATLAB LMI Control Toolbox. Obviously, GEVP (10)–(28) presents an optimization algorithm which guarantees that the degree of exponential stability k is maximal (or c is minimal). This completes the proof. h Remark 3.3. From Definition 2.4, we conclude that the equilibrium point of system (2) is globally exponentially stable. We hope that the degree of exponential stability k is maximal (or c is minimal) such that the system converges to the equilibrium point as fast as possible. It requires solving the generalized eigenvalue minimization problem (10)–(28), which is a quasi-convex optimization problem and can be solved by using the MATLAB LMI control toolbox [30]. Although the conservativeness of Theorem 3.2 is higher than Theorem 3.1, it provides a simple method to determine the exponential stability of neutral systems (2) and get the upper bound of the exponential convergence rate and will be widely applied to stability analysis. Remark 3.4. Theorem 3.2 provides delay-dependent stability criterion for neutral systems with interval time-varying delays and Markovian jumping parameters. Moreover, a new type of Markovian jumping matrix Pi is taken into account. These type of augmented matrix has not been used in any of the existing literatures, for the exponential stability of neutral systems with Markovian jumping parameters via GEVPs.

Therefore, according to Theorem 3.2, the uncertain neutral PEEC system presented by MJSs (2) with time-varying delay is globally exponentially stochastically stable. For the above system, applying Theorem 2 in [31] it is found that the equilibrium solution of neutral MJSs (29) is robustly exponentially stable in the mean square for any c satisfying c = 2.7157. However, by Theorem 3.2 in this paper we can conclude that if c = 0.8454, system (29) is robustly exponentially stable in the mean square sense based on the GEVPs. Example 2.

Therefore, according to Theorem 3.2, the uncertain neutral PEEC system presented by MJSs (2) with time-varying delay is globally exponentially stochastically stable. By Theorem 3.2 in this paper we can conclude that if c = 2.9340, system (29) is robustly exponentially stable in the mean square sense based on the GEVPs. 5. Conclusion A new sufficient condition is derived to guarantee the global exponential stability of the Markovian jumping neutral systems with interval time-varying delays. By selecting appropriate Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals, we give the sufficient conditions so that the analysis problem can be tackled in the form of LMIs, which can be easily calculated by MATLAB LMI control toolbox and the associated synthesis problem can be dealt with by solving the generalized eigenvalue problem (GEVP). The result through the examples shown that the derived stability criteria are less conservative than some recent ones. Adding additional terms and more positive-definite matrices which would be appeared in the mode dependent form of L–K functional lead the system stability to be complicated which would improve the numerical results to some extend than the results presented in this paper. This issue is one of the future directions of the topic.
