This paper studies the two-dimensional (2-D) expected power bound (EPB) for 2-D digital filters with multiplicative noise in the Fornasini-Marchesini local state-space (FMLSS) model. By virtue of a class of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), the novel existence criterion of 2-D EPB for 2-D digital filters in the considered model is obtained. The corresponding stabilization controller design method is presented based on the above criterion. Finally, two examples are presented to verify the effectiveness of our results.
