Event-Based H ∞ Filter Design for Sensor Networks with Missing Measurements

and Applied Analysis 3 aremunrelated randomvariables. Onlywhen the expectation of a certain function of current sampled value y(k) and the previously transmitted one y(s i ) violate (4), it can be sent out to the filter. Remark 3. Under the event triggering (4), the release times are assumed to be s 0 , s 1 , s 2 , . . . . Due to the delay in the network transmission, the measured output will arrive at the filter at the instants s 0 + τ(s 0 ), s 1 + τ(s 1 ), s 2 + τ(s 2 ), . . ., respectively. Based on the above analysis, considering the behavior of ZOH, the input of the filter is Ξy (k) = Ξy (s i ) , k ∈ [s i + τ (s i ) , s i+1 + τ (s i+1 ) − 1] . (5) Similar to [4, 6, 11], for technical convenience, consider the following two cases. Case 1. When s i +1+τ M ≥ s i+1 +τ(s i+1 )−1, define a function d(k) as d (k) = k − s i , k ∈ [s i + τ (s i ) , s i+1 + τ (s i+1 ) − 1] . (6) Obviously, τ (s i ) ≤ d (k) ≤ (s i+1 − s i ) + τ (s i+1 ) − 1 ≤ 1 + τ M . (7) Case 2. When s i + 1 + τ M ≤ s i+1 + τ(s i+1 ) − 1, consider the following two intervals: [s i + τ (s i ) , s i + τ M ] , [s i + τ M + l, s i + τ M + l + 1] . (8) From τ(k) ≤ τ, we can deduce that there must exist d satisfying s i + d + τ M < s i+1 + τ (s i+1 ) − 1 ≤ s i + d + 1 + τ M . (9) Moreover, y(s i ) and y(s i + l) l = 1, 2, . . . , d satisfy (4). Set I 0 = [s i + τ (s i ) , s i + τ M + 1) , I l = [s i + τ M + l, s i + τ M + l + 1) , I d = [s i + d + τ M , s i+1 + τ (s i+1 ) − 1] , (10) where l = 1, 2, . . . , d − 1. Clearly, we have [s i + τ (s i ) , s i+1 + τ (s i+1 ) − 1] = i=d


Introduction
The application of network technologies is becoming increasingly important in many areas for its predominant advantages (such as low cost, simple installation and maintenance, and high reliability).However, it is known that implementing a communication network can induce multiple channel transmission, packet dropout, and so on.This has motivated much attention to the research.Various techniques have been proposed to deal with the above issues, such as time triggered communication scheme [1,2] and event triggered communication scheme [3][4][5][6][7].In general, under a time triggered communication scheme, a fixed sampling interval should be selected under worse conditions such as external disturbances and time delay.However, such situation rarely occurs.Hence, time triggered communication scheme can lead to transmit much unnecessary information and inefficient utilization of limited network resources.Comparing with time triggered scheme, the event triggered scheme can save the network resources such as network bandwidth while maintaining the control performance.The adoption of the event triggered scheme has drawn a great deal of interest to the researchers.The authors in [3] firstly proposed a kind of event triggered scheme which decided whether the newly sampled signal should be transmitted to the controller and invested the controller design problem.In [8], the authors took the sensor and actuator faults into consideration and studied the reliable control design for networked control system under event triggered scheme.The authors in [9] were concerned with the control design problem of event triggered networked systems with both state and control input quantization.In [10], the authors discussed the event-based fault detection for the networked systems with communication delay and nonlinear perturbation.
On the other hand, the filtering problem has been a hot topic over the past decades.A large number of outstanding results have been published [9,[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18].For example, the researchers in [9] studied the problem of event-based  ∞ filtering for networked systems with communication delay.Most of them are based on an assumption that sensors are working without any flaws.However, the distortion of the sensor usually occurs due to the internal noise or external disturbance.Therefore, it is necessary to discuss the situation when the filter cannot receive the value of the process accurately.Fortunately, much effort has been put into this issue.The authors in [19] were concerned with reliable  ∞ filter design for sampled-data systems with probabilistic sensor signal distortion.In [20], the authors investigated reliable  ∞ filter design for T-S fuzzy model based networked control systems with random sensor failure.
To the best of our knowledge, the filter design of event triggering network-based systems with random sensor failures is still an open problem, which motivates our present paper.The main contributions of the obtained results are as follows: (I) the insertion of the event triggering generator saves the network resources and network bandwidth.(II) A new kind of event triggering network-based systems with probabilistic sensor failures and network induced delay, which has not been investigated in the existing literatures, is proposed.
This paper is outlined as follows.Section 2 presents the modeling.Section 3 presents our main stability theorem and develops a filter design method.In Section 4, an example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

System Description
As shown in Figure 1, our aim in this paper is to investigate an event-based reliable filtering design problem by taking the effect of sensor faults.Suppose the plant model is governed by where () ∈ R  is the state vector, () ∈ R  is the measured output, () is the signal to be estimated, () is the process noise belonging to L 2 (0, ∞), , , , and  are known constant matrices with appropriate dimensions.
Remark 1. Considering the network induced delay, the transmission time of measured output () from sensor to filt cannot be neglected.The input of the filter is not (), but ŷ(), in fact, ŷ() = ( + ()).() is the network induced delay, and () ∈ [0,   ), where   is a positive real number.
For the network-based system in described in Figure 1, we propose the following filter: where   () is the filter state, ŷ() is the input of the filter,   ,   ,   are the filter matrices of appropriate dimensions.
If we take the missing sensor measurements into consideration, (2) can be described as where being  unrelated random variables, and the mathematical expectation and variance of Ξ  are   and  2  , respectively.
Remark 2. When   = 1, it means the sensor  works normally.When   = 0, it means the sensor  completely failed and the signal transmitted by sensor  is lost.When Ξ  ∈ [0, 1], it means the signal at the filter is smaller or greater than it actually is [20].
In order to reduce the load of network transmission and save the network resources such as network bandwidth, it is necessary to introduce an event triggered mechanism.As is shown in Figure 1, an event generator is constructed between the sensor and filter, which is used to decide whether the measured output should be sent to the filter.We adopt the following judgement algorithm: where are  unrelated random variables.Only when the expectation of a certain function of current sampled value () and the previously transmitted one (  ) violate ( 4), it can be sent out to the filter.
Based on the above analysis, considering the behavior of ZOH, the input of the filter is Similar to [4,6,11], for technical convenience, consider the following two cases.
From the modeling process, we can see that the system ( 21) is more general.
Before giving the main results in the next section, the following lemmas will be introduced, which will be helpful in deriving the main results.

Main Results
In this section, we will invest a new approach to guarantee the filter error system (21) to be globally asymptotically stable.A sufficient condition is established for (21).Then, the explicit filter design method in (20) is given.
Based on Theorem 8, a design method of the reliable filter in the form of ( 20) is given in Theorem 9.
From Theorem 8, the filter error system ( 21) is asymptotic stable with  ∞ performance level .
Similar to the analysis of [25], the filter parameters in (20) can be obtained as (38).

Simulation Examples
Consider a specific network controlled system of Equation ( 21) under a structure: Assume 0 ≤ () ≤ 4 and the failure rates of the sensors are  1 = 0.8 and  1 = 0.05.According to Theorem 9, when  ∞ performance level  = 0.8, the following parameters can be obtained from the solution of (35) and (36) by using the LMI technique: Based on the designed filter above, the response of the error () and the probabilistic failure Ξ are given in Figures 2 and 3, respectively.Figure 4 describes the release instants and release interval.It is easy to see from Figures 2-4 that the filter design method in this paper is effectiveness.

Conclusion
This paper investigates a  ∞ filter design for a class of network-based systems under an event triggered mechanism.In particular, the system under study is a more general sensor failure model.Considering the uncertain time delay, the uncertain network environment and probabilistic missing sensor measurements, we introduce an event triggered mechanism into the system.By using the free-weighting matrix method and the LMI techniques, the fundamental stability conditions are obtained and the filter design methods are developed.Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed designed method.
We would like to point out that it is possible to extend our main results to the nonlinear systems such as T-S fuzzy systems, and complex network systems.This will also be one of our future research issues.
