Abstract

This paper investigates the robust finite-time H control problem for a class of uncertain switched neutral systems with unknown time-varying disturbance. The uncertainties under consideration are norm bounded. By using the average dwell time approach, a sufficient condition for finite-time boundedness of switched neutral systems is derived. Then, finite-time H performance analysis for switched neutral systems is developed, and a robust finite-time H state feedback controller is proposed to guarantee that the closed-loop system is finite-time bounded with H disturbance attenuation level γ. All the results are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, two numerical examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
