MASTER-SLAVE SYNCHRONIZATION OF LUR'E SYSTEMS BASED ON TIME-VARYING DELAY FEEDBACK CONTROL
Abstract
This paper deals with the master-slave synchronization problem of Lur'e systems based on time-varying delay feedback control. The time-varying delay is only assumed to be bounded. Delay-dependent conditions are derived such that the controlled slave system can track the master system. The synchronization criteria are expressed in terms of linear matrix inequality, which can be checked readily by using some standard numerical packages. A simulation example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
