Robust absolute stability criteria for a class of uncertain Lur'e systems of neutral type

This paper is concerned with the problem of robust absolute stability for a class of uncertain Lur'e systems of neutral type. Some delay-dependent stability criteria are obtained and formulated in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Neither model transformation nor bounding technique for cross terms is involved through derivation of the stability criteria. A numerical example shows the effectiveness of the criteria
