In this paper, we consider the problem of designing decentralized sliding mode control laws far a class of large scale systems with mismatched uncertainties. We derive a sufficient condition far the existence of a linear switching surface in terms of a linear matrix inequalities(LMIs), and we parameterize the linear switching surfaces in terms of the solution matrices to the given LMI existence conditions. We also give an algorithm for designing decentralized switching feedback control laws. Finally, we give a design example in order to show the effectiveness of our method.
