LMI approach to suboptimal guaranteed cost control for uncertain time-delay systems
Results on the design of robust memoryless state feedback controllers for uncertain time-delay systems with norm bounded uncertainty are presented. It is proved that the feasibility of a linear matrix inequality (LMI) problem is necessary and sufficient for the quadratic stabilisation of an uncertain time-delay system. A robust state feedback controller can be constructed using the corresponding feasible solution of the LMI problem. A procedure is given to select a suitable state feedback controller that is also suboptimal in the sense of minimising a bound on a quadratic performance index.
