Stability analysis for a partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC) model of neutral type: Research Articles

This paper is concerned with the problem of robust stability analysis for a partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC) model of neutral type. Based on Lyapunov stability theory and a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, some sufficient delay-dependent stability conditions are derived. A numerical example shows that the result using the method in the paper is less conservative than that using some existing methods in the literature.
