摘要

In this paper, control design based on target tracking for a class of neutral systems is investigated by augmented error system approach. The dynamic equation of tracking error is derived by use of the desired output which is assumed to be known. Based on the main thought of preview control, the augmented error system is constructed. A criterion to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the corresponding nominal system is established. Through control design of the augmented error system, a delay-dependent control and a delay-independent control are respectively presented for the original neutral system. Control design in this paper contains integrators, which can effectively reduce static errors. Examples are given to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method.
