Abstract :
This note is concerned with the stability problem of linear delay-differential systems of neutral type. A discretized Lyapunov functional approach is developed. The resulting stability criterion is formulated in the form of a linear matrix inequality. For nominal systems, the analytical results can be approached with fine discretization. Numerical examples show significant improvement over approaches in the literature.
