this paper presents h∞ control problem for input-delayed systems. a neutral system approach is considered to the design of pd controller for input delay systems in presence of uncertain time-invariant delay. using this approach, the resulting closed-loop system turns into a specific time-delay system of neutral type. the significant specification of this neutral system is that its delayed coeff...

Sufficient conditions for passivity (positive realness) are obtained for continuous-time, linear, retarded, and neutral-type systems. A delay-dependent solution is given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) by using a descriptor model transformation of the system and by applying Park’s inequality for bounding cross terms. A memoryless state-feedback solution is derived. Numerical examp...
