Novel Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional with delay-dependent matrix for stability of time-varying delay systems

摘要

This paper investigates the stability criteria of time-varying delay systems with known bounds of the delay and its derivative. To obtain a tighter bound of integral term, quadratic generalized free-weighting matrix inequality (QGFMI) is proposed. Furthermore, a novel augmented Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional (LKF) are constructed with a delay-dependent matrix, which impose the information for a bound of delay derivative. Relaxed stability condition using QGFMI and LKF provides a larger delay bound with low computational burden. The superiority of the proposed stability condition is verified by comparing to recent results.
