Abstract

In this paper, finite-time boundedness and dissipativity analysis for a class of networked cascade control systems (NCCSs) is investigated. The NCCS is defined with network-induced imperfections such as packet dropouts and time delays, and Bernoulli distributed white sequence is used to model a stochastic packet dropout case. Using the Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, we propose the sufficient conditions for finite-time boundedness and finite-time dissipativity of NCCS. Finally, the LMI-based conditions are applied on a practical power plant boiler–turbine system to show the effectiveness and applicability of the achieved results.
