Abstract

Easy ways to test the stability of systems involving time delays have been sought. In this paper, several stability conditions with an extremely simple form are provided. First, some criteria for single linear systems with time delays are presented. Then these results are extended to the composite linear systems with time delays which exist in each subsystem and in the interconnections between subsystems. Among these criteria, those which are expressed by scalar inequalities also permit us to assess the transient behaviour of systems.
