Stability analysis for a class of switched neutral systems via multiple generalized Lyapunov functional scheme

Abstract

This paper discusses the stability analysis for a class of switched neutral systems with none of the individual subsystems asymptotically stable. By employing a multiple generalized Lyapunov functional method and a free-weighting matrix technique, a delay-dependent stability criterion under a designed hysteresis switching law is developed in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, a simulation example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
