Communication constraints impose that, per transmission, only one sensor or actuator node can access the network and send its information. Which node is given access to the network at a transmission time is orchestrated by a so-called network protocol. This paper considers NCSs, in which the transmission intervals and transmission delays are described by a random process, having a continuous probability density function (PDF). By focussing on linear plants and controllers and periodic and quadratic protocols, we present a modelling framework for NCSs based on stochastic discrete-time switched linear systems. Stability (in the mean-square) of these systems is analysed using convex overapproximations and a finite number of linear matrix inequalities. On a benchmark example of a batch reactor, we illustrated the effectiveness of the developed theory.
