Abstract
ABSTRACT In many smart systems, such as cloud computing, networked control, manufacturing, and telecommunication, the effects of time delays are unavoidable. Saturation nonlinearity is common in many smart systems (e.g. electric systems with limited actuator power supplies, mechanical systems with position and speed constraints, fixed-point digital filters, etc.). Therefore, the study of stability of discrete-time systems (DTSs) with time delay and saturation is of high importance in practice. The global asymptotic stability (GAS) problem of such systems is investigated in this paper. The saturation nonlinearity is constrained by a convex hull with a free matrix whose infinity norm is smaller than or equal to unity. A new Lyapunov-based GAS criterion for DTSs with time-varying delay and state saturation is established. The GAS problem for DTSs with constant delay and saturation is also discussed. The obtained results can be used to ensure the absence of overflow oscillations in the considered system. In comparison to several existing criteria, the approach yields improved stability results. An example is provided to demonstrate the importance of the presented results.
