In this paper, the control problem is investigated for discrete time-varying delayed systems with stochastic uncertainty, external disturbance, and two-channel packet dropouts. Sliding mode functions with packet loss probabilities are proposed for the packet loss problem in the sensor–controller channel and the controller–actuator channel. Furthermore, by employing the Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, some new stability conditions are established in terms of solvable linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), and H∞ performance is analyzed for the sliding mode motion of the system. Meanwhile, a sliding mode controller is designed to drive the system state to the pre-designed sliding surface. Moreover, the designed controller can be robust for two-channel packet dropouts, time-varying delays, stochastic uncertainty and external disturbance. Finally, two numerical examples are given to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed theoretical method.
