Abstract

This article develops a controller-synthesis method for induced L∞-norm bounded stability of time-delay systems under disturbances. First, a general sufficient bounded-stability condition is derived using a Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional. Next, this condition is specialized to linear systems with time-varying input delay and expressed as linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) for state-feedback controller synthesis. The applicability of the proposed framework is illustrated through a DC motor control example with various input/output configurations. In addition, comparative results are provided for constant-delay, time-varying-delay, and delay-free controller designs, including a comparison with an H∞-based controller.
