Delay-dependent robust stability and H∞ analysis of stochastic systems with time-varying delay

Abstract

This paper investigates the robust stochastic stability and H∞ analysis for stochastic systems with time-varying delay and Markovian jump. By using the freeweighting matrix technique, i.e., He's technique, and a stochastic Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, new delay-dependent criteria in terms of linear matrix inequalities are derived for the the robust stochastic stability and the H∞ disturbance attenuation. Three numerical examples are given. The results show that the proposed method is efficient and much less conservative than the existing results in the literature. © Shanghai University and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2010.
