This paper studies the dissipative control problem of the multibody high-speed train (HST) systems with nonuniform sampling mechanisms and logarithmic quantizers, in which the transmitted signals are subject to random fading phenomenon. The tracking error dynamic model of HST is firstly established and the logarithmic quantizers for both the input and output (I/O) signals are designed. The faded I/O signals are described by the Rice fading model, in which the mathematical expectation and variance are given in advance. Then, based on the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach with the consideration of time-varying delay, sufficient conditions are derived to ensure the convergence of tracking error and that HST is strictly dissipative. Further, the design method of the gain matrix is obtained by employing the linear matrix inequalities (LMI) techniques and a compensation algorithm is designed to offset the adverse effect brought by the fading measurements. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed controller is verified by a numerical example from Japan Shinkansen HST.
