An improved impulsive control approach to nonlinear systems with time-varying delays

A scheme for the impulsive control of nonlinear systems with time-varying delays is investigated in this paper. Based on the Lyapunov-like stability theorem for impulsive functional differential equations (FDEs), some sufficient conditions are presented to guarantee the uniform asymptotic stability of impulsively controlled nonlinear systems with time-varying delays. These conditions are more effective and less conservative than those obtained. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
