Robust stability criteria for uncertain systems with interval time-varying delay based on multi-integral functional approach

Abstract

This paper is concerned with the robust stability analysis for uncertain systems with interval time-varying delay. In order to make full use of the delay information, a novel Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional (LKF) containing single, double, triple and quadruple integral terms is introduced, and a triple-integral state variable is also used. Then, by using the Wirtinger-based single and double integral inequality, introducing some positive scalars, the derivative of the constructed LKF is estimated more accurately. As a result, some stability criteria are derived, which have less conservatism and decision variables. Numerical examples are also given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
