Abstract
This paper proposes methods to handle the problem of delay range stability analysis for a linear coupled differential-difference system (CDDS) with distributed delays subject to dissipative constraints. The model of linear CDDS contains many models of linear delay systems as special cases. A novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional with non-constant matrix parameters, which are related to the delay value polynomially, is applied to derive stability conditions. By constructing this new functional, sufficient conditions in terms of robust linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) can be derived, which guarantee range stability of a linear CDDS subject to dissipative constraints. To solve the resulting robust LMIs numerically, we apply the technique of sum of squares programming together with matrix relaxations without introducing any potential conservatism to the original robust LMIs. Furthermore, the proposed methods can be extended to solve delay margin estimation problems for a linear CDDS subject to prescribed dissipative constraints. Finally, numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodologies.
