Our objective is the maximization of the decay rate of the system through the suitable choice of the n-input signals between two measures (periodic sampling) and their times of application. The optimization algorithm is extended for time-varying delays in order to make possible its implementation in networked control systems. We provide experimental results in an air levitation system to verify the validity of the algorithm in a real plant.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess33 Ciencias Tecnológicasartículomulti-rate systemsoptimizationaperiodic controltime-varying delayair levitation system
