Abstract
In this paper, the robust H ∞ control problem for uncertain discrete-time systems with time-varying state delay is considered. Based on the Lyapunov functional method, and by resorting to the new technique for estimating the upper bound of the difference of the Lyapunov functional, a new less conservative sufficient condition for the existence of a robust H ∞ controller is obtained. Moreover, the cone complementary linearisation procedure is employed to solve the nonconvex feasibility problem. Finally, several numerical examples are presented to show the effectiveness and less conservativeness of the proposed method.
