subject

description

In this note, we study the problems of stability analysis and H ∞ controller synthesis of discrete-time switched systems with time-varying delay. The system under consideration is firstly transformed into an interconnection system. Based on the system transformation and the scaled small gain theorem, the asymptotic stability of the original system is examined via the version of the bounded realness of the transformed forward system. The aim of the proposed approach is to reduce conservatism, which is made possible by a precise approximation of the time-varying delay and the input-output approach. The proposed stability condition is demonstrated to be much less conservative than most existing results. Moreover, the problem of H ∞ controller synthesis involving convex optimization is further solved based on the stability condition, whose effectiveness are also illustrated via numerical examples.
