New results on robust H-infinity filtering design for discrete-time piecewise linear delay systems
This paper revisits the problem of robust H-infinity filtering design for a class of discrete-time piecewise linear state-delayed systems. The state delay is assumed to be time-varying and of an interval-like type, which means that both the lower and upper bounds of the time-varying delay are available. The parameter uncertainties are assumed to have a structured linear fractional form. Based on a novel delay-dependent piecewise Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional combined with Finsler's Lemma, a new delay-dependent sufficient condition for robust H-infinity performance analysis is first derived and then the filter synthesis is developed. It is shown that by using a new linearisation technique, a unified framework can be developed so that both the full-order and reduced-order filters can be obtained by solving a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which are numerically efficient with commercially available software. Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness and less conservatism of the proposed approach.
