Stability Test of Networked Systems with Multiple Delays

In this paper, we propose a sufficient stability condition for networked systems with multiple delays based on the 2-D polynomials and 2-D Hurwitz-Schur stability. The main advantage of the new stability condition is that it is applicable to the general case of networked systems with multiple, incommensurate delays yet numerically tractable. The characteristic polynomials of networked systems are mapping into 2-D hybrid polynomials, then to test the Hurwitz-Schur stability can. determine the networked systems, examples including system simulations verify the validity of the proposed test algorithms.
