Exponential stability of switched neutral systems with mixed time-varying delays

Abstract

This paper studies the delay-dependent stability problem for a class of switched neutral systems with mixed time-varying delays. Based on Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach, a sufficient condition for exponential stability is developed for arbitrary switching signal with average dwell time. This condition is delay-dependent and given in terms of linear matrix inequalities. A numerical example is given to show the proposed method.
