A Novel Wirtinger-Based Inequality to H∞ Filtering for Discrete-Time Systems with Time-Varying Delay

This article is committed to H∞ filtering for linear discrete-time systems with time-varying delay. The novelty of the paper comes from the consideration of the new Wirtinger-based inequality with double accumulation terms and the idea of delay-partitioning, which guarantees a better asymptotic stability and is less conservative than the celebrated free-weighting matrix or Jensen’s inequality methods. In combination with the improved Wirtinger-based inequality to handle the modified Lyapunov-Krasovskii (L-K) functionals, a new delay-dependent bound real lemma (BRL) is gained. In the light of the derived H∞ performance analysis results, the H∞ filter will be designed in response to linear matrix inequality (LMI). The validness of the proposed methods will be expressed via some numerical examples by the comparison of existing results.
