Bessel-type inequality in semi-inner-product spaces and its application to stability analysis of discrete-time systems with distributed delays

摘要

In this paper, a Bessel-type inequality in semi-inner produce (s.i.p.) spaces is presented to deal with the problem of stability analysis for a class of discrete-time systems with distributed delays. The main purpose of this paper is to obtain less conservative stability conditions for the investigated systems. For this purpose, a novel inequality (which is referred to as Bessel-type inequality in s.i.p. spaces) is constructed by combining the Bessel inequality and a set of polynomials which is pairwise orthogonal in a s.i.p. space. The proposed inequality is more general than the conventional Jensen-type inequality, which is, to the best of our knowledge, the only inequality to deal with the problem of stability analysis for discrete-time systems with distributed delays up to now. Based on the proposed inequality and the Lyapunov-Krasovskii stability theory, a stability condition is presented. Finally, a numerical example is given to indicate that the proposed method is able to effectively reduce the conservatism.
