Abstract

In this paper, new separated H and H2 performance criteria are derived for a class of time-delay systems. When used in robust performance analysis and synthesis for real polytopic uncertainty and in multiobjective controller synthesis, they can partially rule out the technical restriction of using a single Lyapunov function, and therefore, lead to potentially less conservative linear matrix inequality (LMI) characterizations. Based on the criteria, robust multiobjective H2/H controller is designed for time-delay systems with polytopic uncertainty. All the conditions are given in terms of LMIs. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the proposed method. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley and Sons Asia Pte Ltd and Chinese Automatic Control Society
