Deterministic And Stochastic Time-delay Systems

Deterministic and Stochastic Time-Delay Systems provides professionals and advanced students in control engineering with the most recent results on deterministic and stochastic time-delay systems.

It is an excellent text/reference for graduate level engineering students, or a reference for practicing control engineers, and researchers in control engineering.

The control of uncertain systems has dominated the research effort of the control community during the last two decades. Some practical dynamical systems have time-delay in their dynamics, which makes their control a complicated task even in the deterministic case. The presence of time-delay in dynamical systems is a well-known case of instability and preference degradation. This book presents recent developments on the class of uncertain deterministic/stochastic dynamical systems with time-delay. Problems such as stochastic stability, stabilizability under memory and memoryless state feedback controller and output feedback control, Hinfinite control, filtering and its robustness are treated. Practical implications of the different methods are considered and numerical algorithms are provided for implementation.
