Abstract
This paper investigates the problems of stability and -gain analysis for positive 2-dimensional (2-D) Markov jump systems. The mathematical model of 2-D Markov jump systems is established based on the Roesser model. Necessary and sufficient condition for stability and sufficient condition for
-gain computation are derived. Furthermore, the stability and
-gain conditions are extended to Markov jump systems with partially known transition probabilities. The effectiveness of the obtained theoretical findings is verified through two numerical examples.
