Abstract
A recent sufficient condition for the stability robustness of linear systems with time-varying norm bounded state space uncertainty is extended to include the structure of the uncertainty. Our new result requires that the nominal eigenvalues lie to the left of a vertical line in the complex plane which is determined by a norm involving the structure of the uncertainty and the nominal closed-loop eigenvector matrix. Therefore, this robustness result is especially well suited to the design of control systems using eigenstructure assignment. When the uncertainty is time-invariant, our norm is also an upper bound on the incremental eigenvalue perturbations. We also consider the use of Perron weightings to reduce conservatism and the extension of the results to discrete time systems.
