摘要
In general, a system with time delay may have multiple stable delay intervals. Especially, a stable delay interval does not always contain zero. Asymptotically accurate stability conditions such as discretized Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (DLF) method and sum-of-square (SOS) method are especially effective for such systems. In this article, a DLF-based method is proposed to estimate the maximal stable delay interval accurately without using bisection when one point in this interval is given. The method is formulated as a generalized eigenvalue problem (GEVP) of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), and an accurate estimate may be reached by iteration either in a finite number of steps or asymptotically. The coupled differential-difference equation formulation is used to illustrate the method. However, the idea can be easily adapted to the traditional differential-difference equation setting.
