This paper analyzes the stability of Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) time-delayed systems. Several delay-independent stability conditions are presented, which are derived using appropriately selected Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals. Depending on the system parameter dependence, these functionals can be selected to obtain increasingly non-conservative results. Using relaxation methods and griddin...

This paper examines saturated control of a general class of uncertain nonlinear systems with timedelayed actuation and additive bounded disturbances. The bound on the control is known a priori and can be adjusted by changing the feedback gains. A Lyapunov-based stability analysis utilizing Lyapunov–Krasovskii (LK) functionals is provided to prove uniformly ultimately bounded tracking despite un...

In this paper, the robust H∞ control problem is considered for uncertain neutral systems with discrete and distributed time delays. By using new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals, some sufficient conditions on H∞ robust performance analysis are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Based on these conditions the dynamical output feedback controller are designed. Numerical examples a...

In this paper we discuss the practical stability of a class of time delay systems with an unstable equilibrium. We obtain sufficient conditions based on Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals stated in terms of the feasibility of LMI’s. A “Practical” exponential estimate of the solution is also obtained. The result is extended to the practical stabilization and to the case of systems with multiple del...

The discrete-time delayed neural network with complex-valued linear threshold neurons is considered. By constructing appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals and employing linear matrix inequality technique and analysis method, several new delay-dependent criteria for checking the boundedness and global exponential stability are established. Illustrated examples are also given to show the ef...

Stability analysis is a prerequisite and essential element of application and implementation processes in electrical and electronic fields [1]−[4]. Because time delays occur in many systems, including networked control systems, chemical processes, transportation systems, and neural networks, the issue of stability analysis for time-delay systems has received considerable attention during the la...

We consider a class of nonlinear control systems for which stabilizing feedbacks and corresponding Lyapunov functions for the closed loop systems are available. In the presence of feedback delays and actuator errors, we explicitly construct input-tostate stability (ISS) Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals for the resulting feedback delayed dynamics, in terms of the available Lyapunov functions for ...

Systems with delays are a specific group of dynamic systems. The fact that some delays can be short and some can be long makes system analysis and control design much more complex. In this paper we present a proposal to solve the problem of stability and control design of continuous time systems with time-varying delays. Based on the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional the stability condition is der...

Time-dependent Lyapunov functionals appeared to be very efficient for sampled-data systems. Recently, new Lyapunov functionals were constructed for sampled-data control in the presence of a constant input delay. The construction of these functionals was based on Wirtinger’s inequality leading to simplified and efficient stability conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities . In this artic...
