Abstract
In this paper, a class of multi-input multi-output nonlinearly perturbed Markovian jump systems with partially unknown transition rates is considered. We assume that this class of systems is characterized only by some structural properties such as the system is strongly minimum phase, with a strict relative degree one set and positive definite high frequency gain matrices. For this class of systems, a universal adaptive high gain controller, which is not based on estimation algorithms or identification of parameters, is designed such that in the presence of certain nonlinear perturbations and external disturbances, the convergence and the boundedness of the closed-loop system signals in the mean square sense are ensured. A vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) helicopter example is provided to demonstrate the performance and effectiveness of the obtained results.
