摘要

In this paper, a master-slave synchronization scheme is investigated by using feedback control mechanism with time-varying delay. The time-delay is assumed to be a time-varying continuous function belonging to a given range. By constructing a novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, which includes the information of the range, new delay-range-dependent synchronization criterion is established in term of LMI. It is shown that the new criterion improve some of the previous results in the earlier references. Simulation example is given to show the effectiveness and less conservatism of the proposed criterion.
