Abstract

In this paper, we study the almost sure stability of continuous-timejump linear systems with a finite-state Markov form process. Asufficient condition for almost sure stability is derived that refers tothe statistics of the transition matrix over m switches. It is shown that,if the system is exponentially almost sure stable, there exists afinite m such that the criterion is satisfied. In order to evaluate the expected valueappearing in the condition, an efficient Montecarlo algorithm is worked out.
