This work addresses the output feedback stabilisation problem for a class of linear single-input single-output systems subject to I/O network delays. More precisely, we are interested in the characterisation of the set of delay and gain parameters guaranteeing the stability of the closed-loop system. To perform such an analysis, we adopt aneigenvalue perturbationbased approach. Various illustrative numerical examples complete the presentation. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

This article focuses on the stabilisation problem of fluid-flow delay models of transmission control protocol/active queue management (TCP/AQM) networks by using a proportional-integral (PI) controller as AQM strategy. More precisely, the complete set of PI controllers that exponentially stabilises the corresponding linear time-delay system is derived. Using the particular geometric properties of this set of the controller parameters, the issues of robustness to uncertainty in the network parameters and to perturbation in the controller coefficients are addressed. Then, a methodology to compute a non-fragile PI AQM controller is provided. Finally, exponential estimates for the closed-loop system solutions, allowing to evaluate the performance of the corresponding PI-controlled closed-loop system, are proposed by using a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach. An illustrative example completes the presentation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
