Robust stabilization for networked control systems with nonlinear perturbation

This note discusses the problem of stabilization for a class of uncertain networked control systems(NCSs) with nonlinear perturbation. By introducing a new model of NCSs with parameter uncertainty, network-induced delay, nonlinearity and data packet dropout in the transmission, a strict linear matrix inequality (LMI) criterion is presented for robust stabilization the uncertain nonlinear NCSs based on the Lyapunov stability theory. The maximum upper bound of the allowable delay can be obtained by solving the convex optimization problem of the corresponding LMI. Numerical example is provided to demonstrate the applicability and feasibility of the proposed algorithm.
