Delay-dependent non-fragile robust stabilization and H∞ control of uncertain stochastic systems with time-varying delay and nonlinearity

This paper deals with the problems of non-fragile robust stochastic stabilization and robust H∞ control for uncertain stochastic nonlinear time-delay systems. The parameter uncertainties are assumed to be time-varying norm-bounded appearing in both state and input matrices. The time-delay is unknown and time-varying with known bounds. The non-fragile robust stochastic stabilization problem is to design a memoryless non-fragile state feedback controller such that the closed-loop system is robustly stochastically stable for all admissible parameter uncertainties. The purpose of robust H∞ control problem, in addition to robust stochastical stability requirement, is to reduce the effect of the disturbance input on the controlled output to a prescribed level. Using the Lyapunov functional method and free-weighting matrices, delay-dependent sufficient conditions for the solvability of these problems are established in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI). Numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed theoretical results.
