This paper investigates the issue of robustness of complete stability of standard Cellular Neural Networks (CNNs) with respect to small perturbations of the nominally symmetric interconnections. More specifically, a class of circular one-dimensional (1-D) CNNs with nearest-neighbor interconnections only, is considered. The class has sparse interconnections and is subject to perturbations which preserve the interconnecting structure. Conditions assuring that the perturbed CNN has a unique equilibrium point at the origin, which is unstable, are provided in terms of relative magnitude of the perturbations with respect to the nominal interconnection weights. These conditions allow one to characterize regions in the perturbation parameter space where there is loss of stability for the perturbed CNN. In turn, this shows that even for sparse interconnections and structure preserving perturbations, robustness of complete stability is not guaranteed in the general case.

Abstract

This paper investigates the issue of robustness of complete stability of standard Cellular Neural Networks (CNNs) with respect to small perturbations of the nominally symmetric interconnections. More specifically, a class of circular one-dimensional (1-D) CNNs with nearest-neighbor interconnections only, is considered. The class has sparse interconnections and is subject to perturbations which preserve the interconnecting structure. Conditions assuring that the perturbed CNN has a unique equilibrium point at the origin, which is unstable, are provided in terms of relative magnitude of the perturbations with respect to the nominal interconnection weights. These conditions allow one to characterize regions in the perturbation parameter space where there is loss of stability for the perturbed CNN. In turn, this shows that even for sparse interconnections and structure preserving perturbations, robustness of complete stability is not guaranteed in the general case.
