This paper discusses the robustness of the predictor feedback in the case of
an unknown time varying delay. Specifically, we study the stability of the
closed-loop system when the predictor feedback is designed based on the
knowledge of the nominal value of the time-varying delay. By resorting to an
adequate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, we derive a LMI-based sufficient
condition ensuring the asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system for small
enough variations of the time-varying delay around its nominal value. These
results are extended to the feedback stabilization of a class of diagonal
infinite-dimensional boundary control systems in the presence of a time-varying
delay in the boundary control input.
