Mixed \(H_2/ H_\infty\) control for Itô-type stochastic time-delay systems with applications to clothing hanging device (Q779524)

Summary: This paper deals with the problem of mixed \(H_2/ H_\infty\) control for Itô-type stochastic time-delay systems. First, the \(H_2/ H_\infty\) control problem for stochastic time-delay systems is presented, which considers the mean square stability, \( H_2\) control performance index, and the ability of disturbance attenuation of the closed-loop systems. Second, by choosing an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasoviskii functional and using matrix inequality technique, some sufficient conditions for the existence of state feedback \(H_2/ H_\infty\) controller for stochastic time-delay systems are obtained in the form of linear matrix inequalities. Third, two convex optimization problems with linear matrix inequality constraints are formulated to design the optimal mixed \(H_2/ H_\infty\) controller which minimizes the guaranteed cost of the closed-loop systems with known and unknown initial functions, and the corresponding algorithm is given to optimize \(H_2/ H_\infty\) performance index. Finally, a numerical example is employed to show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.
