Lyapunov Redesign for Input and State Delays Systems by Using Optimal Predictive Control and Ultimate Bound Approaches: Theory and Experiments

This article deals with the robust control design for linear systems with input and state delays, subject to nonvanishing matched disturbances. The controller is synthesized with the Lyapunov redesign technique in two stages: first, an optimal predictor compensates the input delay of the nominal system while a quadratic performance index is minimized. Then, the robust component guarantees that the...
