Controller Design for Continuous-Time Linear Control Systems with Time-Varying Delay

This paper addresses the controller design problem for linear systems with time-varying delays. By constructing a novel Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional incorporating delay-partitioning techniques, we establish delay-dependent stability criteria for the solvability of the robust stabilization problem....

description This paper addresses the controller design problem for linear systems with time-varying delays. By constructing a novel Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional incorporating delay-partitioning techniques, we establish delay-dependent stability criteria for the solvability of the robust stabilization problem. The derived conditions are formulated as linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) that become affine upon fixing a single scalar parameter, thereby facilitating efficient numerical computation. Furthermore, these criteria guarantee that the reachable set of the closed-loop system remains bounded within a prescribed ellipsoid under zero initial conditions. The effectiveness and superiority of the proposed approach are demonstrated through two comparative numerical examples, including a benchmark problem with varying delay.
