Sampled-data control for a class of linear time-varying systems

This paper is concerned with the sampled-data control for a class of linear time-varying system. A classic Halanay inequality is first extended to the time-varying sampled-data system. Then based on the comparison principle and the extended Halanay inequality, new criteria for globally uniformly exponential stability and globally uniformly asymptotic stability of the corresponding closed-loop system are derived. Furthermore, an algorithm is presented to solve the gain synthesis problem. Finally, one example is given to show the effectiveness of the obtained results.
