Abstract

In this paper proposed is an $H_{\ifty}$ based flow controller for the ATM networks. The round trip time-delay uncertainty is taken into account and robustness of the proposed controller is analyzed. Maximum allowable time-delay uncertainties are computed with different weightings on performance and robustness. And discussed is a time-domain implementation method of the proposed controller. Time domain simulation with realistic environment demonstrates that the performance of the proposed controller is much better than that of conventional one.
