Efficient Numerical Analysis of Stability of High-Order Systems with a Time Delay

摘要

A TIME delay of τ∈ R~+ notes that the dynamics of a system at a time of t∈ R~+ depend on some state or input at a previous time of t - τ. Such a delay can often arise due to hardware associated with sensing, actuation, and communication. It can be challenging to properly account for a time delay when designing a control system; consequently, the time delay can introduce unexpected instabilities.
