Abstract

This article concerns the finite-time robust guaranteed cost control problem for a class of linear continuous-time singular systems with norm-bounded uncertainties. In this study, the problem is to design a state feedback controller such that the closed-loop system is finite-time stable, and the closed-loop cost function value is not more than a specified upper bound for all admissible uncertainties. By constructing an appropriate Lyapunov function, a sufficient condition for the finite-time robust stability of the system based on linear matrix inequality (LMI) is established. Furthermore, the sufficient condition for the existence of the guaranteed cost controller is formulated in terms of LMIs, which can make the closed-loop uncertain singular system finite-time robust stable. Finally, two numerical examples are given for illustration of the proposed theoretical results.
