Abstract: This paper proposes a delay-compensated boundary controller for an unstable reaction-diffusion partial differential equation (PDE) with uncertain input delay. The delay is stochastic and modeled by a finite-state Markov process. We utilize the PDE backstepping method for control design. Compared to the case of constant delay, a group of transport PDEs is applied to represent the stochastic properties of the delay which brings challenges to the stability analysis of the closed-loop system. An extra first-order PDE is introduced to construct a new target system. Since the transformation is invertible, we can establish the equivalence between the target system and the original closed-loop system in terms of well-posedness and stability. We first prove the well-posedness of the system by the semigroup theory and then establish the exponential stability of the closed-loop system with respect to the $L^2$-norm of the state and the $H^1$-norm of the infinite-dimensional representation of the actuator state through the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality and Fourier series. A numerical simulation illustrates the effectiveness of the controller.
