Infinite time regular synthesis
In this paper we provide a new sufficiency theorem for regular syntheses. The concept of regular synthesis is discussed in [12], where a sufficiency theorem for finite time syntheses is proved. There are interesting examples of optimal syntheses that are very regular, but whose trajectories have time domains not necessarily bounded. The regularity assumptions of the main theorem in [12] are verified by every piecewise smooth feedback control generating extremal trajectories that reach the target...
This paper considers an analysis and synthesis problem of controllers for linear time-delay systems in the form of delay-dependent memory state feedback, and develops an Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) approach. First, we present an existence condition and an explicit formula of controllers, which guarantee a prescribed level of gain of closed loop systems, in terms of infinite-dimensional LMIs. This result is rather general in the sense that it covers, as special cases, some known results for...
