1. INTRODUCTION Control of time-delay syst.ems is a subject of great practical importa.nce which ha.;; attracted a lot of int.f~rest for several decades; see e.g. Malek-Zavarei and .1a.mshidi (1987). R ecently! some rf'~<;eardl work ha...:;: been conc~m­ trated on the design of robust control for uncertain systems with time-delay, III the work of Thowsen (1983), nonlinf'.ar t.ime--delay state feedba.c.k cont.rollers have been considered whereas Ha..;;anul et al. ( 1986) and Shen et ,1,1. (1991) ha.ve fOCllsp.d on memorylffi.o;; linf>.a.r state feedback control. In the meant.ime, mudl attent.ion has h~n paiet t.o the prohlem of HOC) filt.ering, and a lot of progress hac; been made. sp.e, e.g .. Grimble allo Sayeo (1990), Bernstein and Haddad (1989), "fagpal and Khargonekar (1991) and t he references therein. I\·feanwhile, the H oo filtering problem for system with parameter 1Incert.ainty ha" also been studied by Xic et at. (1991) , whidl address the design of filte-..rs guaranteeing both the robust

st.ability and a. prescribeci Hoo performance for the filtering error dynamics in the face of parameter WlcertrLinty. Pllrt.Ilf'!rmore, Hoo filte ring and control for linear sampled-data systE".ffi ha~ been tar.klp.d by SlUl et al. (1993). The desib'11 of robust filters for uncertain lineal' continuous-t.ime systems 1Isin2; sampled measurements has been investigated by Shi e.: al. (1993). In t.his p..per, we invp.stigate aD H oo filtering problem for a da..<;s of lmcertain continllolls-time systems under sampled measurements. The class of uncertain systems is described by state space model wit.h real time-varying norm-bOlluded parameter Imcertaint.ies, 11Ilknown timedela.ys in the state equation. Here attention is fO(,;lIsed on the design of linear dynamic 111 t,ers using'local sampled mea")urements which guar.'1.ntee the robust. stability as well as a. prescribed H oc performance for the filtering f'..I'ror dynamics, irrespect.ive of paramet.er uncertainties and ImknO\\"Il time-delays. The perfonua:uce measure we use is defined directly in the continuous-time cont.ext.. It

is asSllInNJ that the initial state of the uncertain system is unknown and hoth the c.a.';;f!S of finite and infinite horhwn filtering are considered. 'We show that the robust Hoo sampled-data filtering problems can be l"iolved via scaled output feedbac.k Hoo sampled-data control problems that incorporates unknown initial states and involves neither parameter uncertainties nor unknown time-delays. Therefore, existing results 011 Hoo sampleddata cont.rol sll('h a.", those in Kabamba and Hara (1993) and Sun ~t al. (1993) can lw applied to obtain solutions to the problem of robust H 00 sampled-data filtering for the uncertain systf!ms.

Al.'O note that the uncertain matrices F and Fa aTP- allo1JJt:d 1.0 be state-dependent, i.e. F = F[t,x(t)] and Fo = F.[t,x(t)] as long as (5)(6) are .,ati.'fied. In this paper W~ arc conc~rncd with obtaining an estimat.e Zc (t) of z (t) over a horizon [0 1 T) via a linear causal filter F for (1)-(3) using t.he measurements {y(kh), 0 < kh ~ t}, and where no a priori estimate of the initial state of (1)-(3) are assumed. The filter is required t.o provide lmiformly small estimate error, e(t) z{t) z,(t), t E [0, T] for any w E L,[O, 1'], 1) E 1,(0,1'), Xo E ~Rn and for all admissible uneertainties and unknown time-delays. More spedfic.a11y, the robust H= sampleddata filt.eriug problem we address is as follows: Given a M:alar , > 0 and an initial state weighting matrix R = RT > 0, de.~ign a liner.,r cau.'>al filter F ba<,>ed on the .'>l1.mpled measuTe1wml ... , y(ih), tmch that the filtering error dynamics
