This paper investigates the recursive state estimation problem for a class of discrete-time stochastic complex networks with packet disorders under Round-Robin (RR) communication protocols. The phenomenon of packet disorders results from the random transmission delays during the signal propagation process due to the unpredictable fluctuations of the network load, and such random delays are modeled by a set of random variables satisfying certain known probability distributions. For the sake of lessening the communication burden and abating the data collisions, the RR protocol is introduced to govern the order of the nodes for data transmission. Under the scheduling of the RR protocol, only one node is allowed to gain the access to the network at each time instant. Then, a recursive estimator is devised to guarantee an upper bound for the estimation error covariance, and then the obtained upper bound is locally minimized by adequately choosing the estimator parameters. Furthermore, the boundedness of estimation error is analyzed in the sense of mean square with the help of stochastic analysis techniques. At last, a simulation example is presented to show the applicability of the proposed estimator design scheme. 10.13039/501100004054-King Abdulaziz University (Grant Number: RG-19-611-42); 10.13039/501100001809-National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant Number: 61773017, 61873148, 61873230 and 61933007); Royal Society of the U.K.; Alexander Von Humboldt Foundation of Germany
