Simplified Stability Criteria for Delayed Neutral Systems

الملخص EN

For a class of linear time-invariant neutral systems with neutral and discrete constant delays, several existing asymptotic stability criteria in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are simplified by using matrix analysis techniques.

Compared with the original stability criteria, the simplified ones include fewer LMI variables, which can obviously reduce computational complexity.

Simultaneously, it is theoretically shown that the simplified stability criteria and original ones are equivalent; that is, they have the same conservativeness.

Finally, a numerical example is employed to verify the theoretic results investigated in this paper.
