An Experimental Study for Delay-Independent State-Feedback Controller Design

Abstract

Abstract In this study, a method for determining delay-independent stability zones of the general LTI dynamics with multiple delays against parametric uncertainties is presented. The method is utilized to design a delay-independent state-feedback controller and verified experimentally for a two-tank liquid level control system. The method is based on extended kronecker summation(EKS) to investigate controller parameter space for delay-independent stability(DIS) of the system. The main aim of the paper is recalling a new sufficient condition for determination of controller parameter space for DIS and presenting the application of methodology for a physical experimental case study.
