IQC-Based Output-Feedback Control of LPV Systems with Time-Varying Input Delays

Input delays are a common source of performance degradation and instability in control systems. This paper addresses the $\mathcal{H}_\infty$ output-feedback control problem for LPV systems with time-varying input delays under the integral quadratic constraint (IQC) framework. By integrating parameter-dependent Lyapunov functions with dynamic IQC multipliers, we derive convex, delay-dependent synthesis conditions formulated as parameter-dependent LMIs, enabled by the proposed exact-memory controller structure. An explicit controller reconstruction formula is provided to recover the LPV controller from the LMI solution, avoiding the need to specify the functional form of the parameter-dependent controller gains. While the synthesis problem for memoryless control is inherently non-convex, the proposed approach demonstrates significant performance improvement, reduced conservatism, and computational efficiency for standard output-feedback design. Numerical examples illustrate the effectiveness and broad applicability of the method to LPV systems with time-varying input delays.
