Mixed H_(2)/H_(infinity) output-feedback control of second-order neutral systems with time-varying state and input delays

摘要

A mixed H_(2)/H_(infinity) output-feedback control design methodology is presented in this paper for second-order neutral linear systems with time-varying state and input delays. Delay-dependent sufficient conditions for the design of a desired control are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). A controller, which guarantees asymptotic stability and a mixed H_(2)/H_(infinity) performance for the closed-loop system of the second-order neutral linear system, is then developed directly instead of coupling the model to a first-order neutral system. A Lyapunov-Krasovskii method underlies the LMI-based mixed H_(2)/H_(infinity) output-feedback control design using some free weighting matrices. The simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.
