Delay-dependent exponential stability analysis for discrete-time switched neural networks with time-varying delay

In this paper, we focus on the stability problem for discrete-time switched neural networks with time-varying delay resorting to the average dwell time method. In terms of linear matrix inequality approach, a delay-dependent sufficient condition of exponential stability is developed for a kind of switching signal with average dwell time. A numerical example is given to show the validness of the established result.

Robust H_∞ Controller Design for Uncertain Neutral Systems via Dynamic Observer Based Output Feedback

In this paper, the dynamic observer-based controller design for a class of neutral systems with H∞ control is considered. An observer-based output feedback is derived for systems with polytopic parameter uncertainties. This controller assures delay-dependent stabilization and H∞ norm bound attenuation from the disturbance input to the controlled output. Numerical examples are provided for illustration and comparison of the proposed conditions.     

Asynchronous switching output feedback control of discrete-time switched linear systems

In this paper, the problem of dynamic output-feedback control synthesis is addressed for discrete-time switched linear systems under asynchronous switching. The proposed hybrid controller consists of a standard dynamic output-feedback switching control law and an impulsive reset law induced by controller state jumps. Using the average dwell time technique incorporating with multiple quadratic Lyapunov functions, the switching control synthesis conditions for asymptotic stability with guaranteed weighted ?₂-gain performance are derived as a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The proposed hybrid synthesis scheme advances existing design methods for output-feedback asynchronous switching control of switched linear systems in two important aspects: LMI formulation of the synthesis problem; and arbitrary order of the controller state. A numerical example is used to illustrate the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed design technique.     

LMI stability criterion with less variables for time-delay systems

Slack variables approach is an important technique for tackling the delay-dependent stability problem for systems with time-varying delay. In this paper, a new delay-dependent stability criterion is presented without introducing any slack variable. The technique is based on a simply integral inequality. The result is shown to be equivalent to some existing ones but includes the least number of variables. Thus, redundant selection and computation can be avoided so that the computational burden can be largely reduced. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed stability conditions. Recommended by Editorial Board member Young Soo Suh under the direction of Editor Jae Weon Choi.

具有单调性非线性项的非线性系统降维观测器设计

Based on the discussion about the existence and design method of full-order observer for systems with monotone nonlinearities, a reduced-order observer design method is developed under the assumption that a linear matrix inequality (LMI) has positive definite matrix solution and the reduced-order observer gain matrix is computed by the solution of LMI. By a linear transformation, a reduced-order observer which does not contain the information of the derivative of the system output is provided. A model is simulated and some conclusions are drawn based on the comparison of the results of reduced-order observer to that of full-order observer. The simulation shows that the design method developed by this paper has good performance.
