Abstract
In this paper, an augmented Lyapunov functional is proposed to investigate the asymptotic stability of neutral systems. Two methods with or without decoupling the Lyapunov matrices and system matrices are developed and shown to be equivalent to each other. The resulting delay-dependent stability criteria are less conservative than the existing ones owing to the augmented Lyapunov functional and the introduction of free-weighting matrices. The delay-independent criteria are obtained as an easy corollary. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and less conservativeness of the proposed methods.
