Finite-time reliable networked control for continuous-time nonlinear time-delay systems

This brief investigates the finite-time reliable networked control problem of continuous-time nonlinear time-delay systems. The sufficient condition in terms of linear matrix inequity (LMI) is obtained to guarantee the finite-time stability (FTS) of continuous-time nonlinear time-delay systems in network environments. The passive reliable networked controller is designed in the scope of FTS. The overall framework is built on T-S fuzzy model. Some common network features are also described and analyzed. Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the validity of the proposed method.
