Optimal guaranteed cost control of uncertain discrete time-delay systems

AbstractThis paper considers the problem of robust guaranteed cost control of linear discrete time-delay systems with parametric uncertainties. By matrix inequality approach, the robust quadratic stability of the system is studied. A control design method is developed such that the closed-loop system with a cost function has a upper bound irrespective of all admissible parameter uncertainties and unknown time delays. Furthermore, the upper bound (cost) can be optimized by incorporating with a minimization problem. A numerical example is given to show the potential of the proposed techniques
