This paper is concerned with the periodic switched control of a linear dual-rate sampled-data system. The state variables of the continuous-time plant are sampled by two types of sensors. The ratio of two sampling rates is assumed to be a rational number. Depending on whether the sampled-data of state variables at two sampling rates is available simultaneously or separately, a periodic switched controller is constructed. Applying an input delay approach, the closed-loop system is modeled as a switched system with subsystems having different input delays. Some delay-dependent criteria for the H∞ performance of the switched system and the existence of the switched controller are derived by employing a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional that includes information about two sampling periods. The dual-rate sampled-data control of a vehicle dynamic system is given to show that the proposed method is effective and it can achieve a better H∞ control performance than the single-rate design method.
