Robust stability analysis with quadratic separator: parametric time-varying uncertainty case

We propose a method for analyzing robust stability of linear systems subject to parametric time-varying uncertainties. Using a previously developed analysis tool, quadratic separator, a less conservative upper bound on the real /spl mu/ is given first. Based on this result, a sufficient condition for robust stability is given in the frequency domain. Relations to quadratic stability are discussed.
