A popular design framework for networked control systems (NCSs) is the emulation-based approach combined with Lyapunov-based analysis techniques hybrid systems. In virtually all papers that use this framework, bounds in terms of maximal allowable transmission interval (MATI) are provided to guarantee stability, and performance properties NCS. However, having only such a MATI condition rather re...
