Accurate delay calculation of circuit gates is very important in timing analysis of digital circuits. Waveform shapes on the input ports of logic gates should be considered, in the characterization phase of delay calculation, to obtain accurate gate delay values. Glitches and their temporal effect on circuit gate delays should be taken into account for this purpose. However, the explosive numbe...

In networked control systems, time delay and data dropout can degrade the performance of the control system and even destabilize the system. In the present paper, the Extended Kalman filter is employed to compensate the effects of time delay and data dropout in feedforward and feedback paths of networked control systems. In the proposed method, the extended Kalman filter is used as an observer ...

We show that the class of regular time varying systems is invariant under perturbations by time–varying state and input delays. In particular, we give explicit formulas of the resulting input, output, and input–output maps. This result is used to solve the feedback problem for the delayed system. The relationship between the open and the closed loop system is investigated. Our results are appli...

Synthesis of an adaptive parameter identifier is developed for linear dynamic systems with finitely many lumped delays in the state vector and control input. The state of the system is assumed to be available for measurements. Once the parameter identifiability is guaranteed the simultaneous on-line identification of the system parameters and delays is achieved by the adaptive identifier propos...
