Quasi-Synchronization Control of Switched Complex Networks with Coupling Delays

This paper studies the synchronization problem for general switched complex networks (SCNs) with coupling delays. Considering the presence of bounded external disturbances and their potential impact on synchronization performance, a quasi-synchronization control technique is then proposed in this research. By introducing the combined switching strategy alongside a time-dependent multiple Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (TMLF), the corresponding sufficient conditions are presented, which ensure that the concerned synchronization error is exponentially ultimately bounded. Lastly, an example is offered to confirm the accuracy of the established quasi-synchronization criterion.
