In this paper, the sliding mode control (SMC) design for nonlinear stochastic semi-Markov switching systems (S-MSSs) is studied via the bound of time-varying transition rate matrix, in which semi-Markov switching parameters, stochastic disturbance, uncertainty, and nonlinearity are all considered in a unified framework. The system under consideration is more general, which covers the Markov switching system with sojourn-time-independent transition rate matrix as a special case. Many practical systems subject to unpredictable structural variations can be characterized by nonlinear stochastic S-MSSs with sojourn-time-dependent transition rate matrix. The specific information about the bound of time-varying transition rate matrix is known for the sliding mode controller design. First, by using the stochastic semi-Markov Lyapunov function, sojourn-time-dependent sufficient conditions are developed to guarantee the closed-loop sliding mode dynamics stochastically stable. Then, the SMC law is constructed to ensure the reachability of the sliding mode dynamics in a finite-time level. Finally, one joint of space robot manipulator model is described as nonlinear stochastic S-MSSs to illustrate the validity of the proposed SMC design method.
