Abstract
In this paper, the synchronization problem for a class of neutral complex dynamical networks with coupling time-varying delays is considered. A delay-dependent synchronization criterion is derived for the synchronization of neutral complex dynamical networks. By the use of a convex representation of the sector-restricted nonlinearity in system dynamics, the stability condition based on the discretized Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is obtained via LMI (linear matrix inequality) formulation. The effectiveness of our work is verified through a numerical example and simulation.
