Improvements on robust stability of sampled-data system with long time delay (Q1718707)

Summary: This paper mainly studies the problem of the robust stability analysis for sampled-data system with long time delay. By constructing an improved Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and employing some free weighting matrices, some new robust stability criteria can be established in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Furthermore, the proposed equivalent criterion eliminates the effect of free weighing matrices such that numbers of decision variables and computational burden are less than some existing results. A numerical example is also presented and compared with previously proposed algorithm to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the developed results.
