This paper investigates the predictive sliding mode control problem of networked control system with long-time delay and consecutive packet dropout in both sensor-controller link and controller-actuator link. A new modeling method that uses only one Markov chain to describe the time delay and packet dropout in a unified model is proposed. As a modification of the original law, a new chattering-free reaching law that is suitable for multiple-input systems is proposed and is later used as the reference trajectory of the designed predictive sliding mode controller. To overcome the influence of time delay and packet dropout, a novel predictive sliding mode controller equipped with a logic zero-order-holder and delay compensator is proposed, and the proposed compensation strategy is theoretically proven to be able to make the system completely free from the influence of long-time delay and consecutive packet dropout. Finally, a simulation example is given to illustrate the validity of the proposed controller.
