Abstract :
A jump linear system (JLS) is a linear differential equation with N possible sets of randomly jumping (switching) coefficients. The JLS model has many real-world physical and conceptual (e.g. economic) systems. The bulk of the JLS-research effort concerns pure-Markov JLS (MJLS). In this paper we consider the more general semi-Markov JLS (SMJLS). This paper also shows a new sub-optimal but tractable and parsimonious control design method for SMJLS, and a closed-loop stability test.
