Dilated LMI characterization for the robust finite time control of discrete-time uncertain linear systems

This paper provides new dilated linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) characterizations for the finite time boundedness (FTB) and the finite time stability (FTS) analysis of discrete-time uncertain linear systems. The dilated LMIs are later used to design a robust controller for the finite time control of discrete-time uncertain linear systems. The relevant feature of the proposed approach is the decoupling between the Lyapunov and the system matrices, that allows considering a parameter-dependent Lyapunov function. In this way, the conservativeness with respect to previous results is decreased. Numerical examples are used to illustrate the results.
