Abstract
A new method providing necessary and sufficient conditions to test delay-independent stability for general linear time-invariant systems with constant delays is proposed. The method is utilized for single delay and incommensurate multiple delay systems. The proposed method offers an approach to determine the exact boundaries of unknown parameters such as controller gains or system parameters ensuring delay-independent stability, in addition to exhibiting an efficient test for real parameters. The technique is based on nonexistence of unitary complex zeros of an auxiliary characteristic polynomial obtained via extended Kronecker summation. A special feature of the polynomial, i.e., the self-inversive property, is proved and utilized to check its unitary zeros to determine delay-independent stability by an efficient zero location test. The methodology is executed employing simple algebraic operations and inspection of the number of sign variations in the obtained sequence. For the single delay case, the pro...
