Introduction
Over the past several decades, the 2D systems have attracted considerable research interests due to their wide applications in many areas such as water stream heating, thermal processes, biomedical imaging, data processing and transmission, multidimensional digital filters, image processing, grid based wireless sensor networks [1,2].Recently, the problems of stability analysis and control synthesis of 2D systems have been investigated in [3][4][5].Furthermore, the so-called 2D modeling theory could be applied as an efficient analysis tool to deal with other problems; for example, elimination of overflow oscillations in 2D digital filters employing saturation arithmetic has been implemented be means of LMIs in [6], LMI-based stability analysis of 2D discrete systems described by the Fornasini-Marchesini (FM) second model with state saturation has been addressed in [7],  ∞ filter design for 2D Markovian jump systems has been given in [8], and optimal guaranteed cost control of 2D discrete uncertain systems has been studied in [9], respectively.More recently, considering the fact that state saturation often appears in various 2D digital systems when its transfer function is implemented by a state-space model with the finite wordlength format, the problem of stability analysis of 2D state-space digital filters with saturation arithmetic has been deeply investigated in the literature [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] and less conservative LMI-based stability criteria have been persistently obtained.However, it is worth noting that most of the above results are only for certain 2D systems.As is well known, most of the practical plants can be modelled as some linear 2D systems with system's parameter uncertainties and then these existing results fail to work when system's uncertain parameters affect the 2D system.
As is well known, the Lyapunov stability theory has become an efficient tool for addressing the problem of stability analysis and control synthesis of linear or nonlinear uncertain systems.Indeed, the earlier results on stability analysis and control synthesis of linear uncertain systems were obtained by applying the common quadratic Lyapunov function (CQLF).However, the CQLF applies a single Lyapunov matrix for all uncertain submodels and the obtained results are often very conservative.With the purpose of further reducing the conservatism, an efficient affine parameterdependent Lyapunov function (APDLF) is proposed in [21], and the derived results can be less conservative than other existing ones.More importantly, it is worth noting that the Roesser-type discrete-time 2D system's information is propagated along two independent directions and this fact makes the problem of control synthesis more complicated than the usual 1D linear uncertain systems.Therefore, due to the complexity of mathematical analysis, there has been few work on control synthesis of linear uncertain Roessertype discrete-time 2D systems in the existing literature so far.Indeed, this problem needs to be further investigated and this fact motivates us to carry out the investigation proposed in this paper.
Motivated by the above analysis, the problem of control synthesis of uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time twodimensional systems will be investigated based on the Lyapunov stability theory in this paper.In particular, the used mathematical model of the system's parameter uncertainty, which often appears typically in most practical environments, is modeled as a convex bounded uncertain domain.Because the Roesser-type discrete-time 2D system's information is propagated along two independent directions, and thus the derivation of control synthesis would be more complicated than the usual 1D models.Then, LMI-based stabilization conditions are proposed by applying both a Lyapunov function for the uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D system and a state-feedback control law for the uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D system.Under the control of obtained statefeedback control law, the uncertain Roesser-type discretetime 2D system could be ensured to be robust asymptotically stable.More importantly, the obtained result of this paper is formulated by means of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which can be easily solved via standard MATLAB software.Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed approach in this paper is demonstrated by some numerical examples.
The rest of this paper is organized as follows: following the introduction, some preliminaries are provided in Section 2. LMI-based stabilization conditions of the uncertain Roessertype discrete-time 2D systems are given in Section 3 and the task of control synthesis is achieved.In Section 4, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed result given in this paper.Finally, some conclusions are given in Section 5.
For simplicity, the notations used are fair standard.For example,  > 0 (or  ≥ 0) denotes the matrix  as symmetric and positive definite (or symmetric and positive semidefinite); a star * in a symmetric matrix represents the transposed element in the symmetric position;   means the transpose of ; the symbol  denotes the identity matrix with appropriate dimension.

Preliminaries
Consider a class of uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D systems which are described as follows: with where where  1 and  2 are dimensions of the horizontal state vector and the vertical state vector, respectively.u(⋅, ⋅) is the control input in R  3 .,  are two integers in Z + .In this paper, the system's coefficient matrices () and () are assumed to be not precisely known and belong to the fixed structure as follows: where we have where Δ  is the unit simplex given by Without loss of generality, the boundary conditions along two independent directions are defined as x ℎ (0, ) = (), x V (, 0) = (), where () and () are corresponding boundary conditions along two independent directions.Let us denote   = sup{‖x(, )‖ :  =  + }, and then we give out the definition of robust asymptotical stability for uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D systems (1) as follows.
Then, we end this section with a well-known lemma which plays an important role in the proof of our main result.

Main Results
Considering the characteristics of the uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D systems (1), a kind of state-feedback control law for implementing the task of control synthesis is proposed as follows: where we have Therefore, the closed-loop uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D systems (1) become x + (, ) = ( () +  () ) x (, ) .
With the purpose of conceiving the robust asymptotic stability of the closed-loop uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D systems, stabilization conditions will be developed by applying a Lyapunov function for uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D systems in the following sequel.
Theorem 3.Under the control of the state-feedback control law (6), the closed-loop uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D systems (7) are robust asymptotically stable if there exist appropriately dimensional matrices  and, with such that the following LMIs hold: Moreover, the controller gain matrices could be calculated as follows:  =  −1 .
Then, it is easy to see that the closed-loop uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D systems (7) are asymptotically stable if the following inequality holds: Using Lemma 2 (i.e., the well-known Schur complement lemma given in [22]) in (12), it could be concluded that ( 12) is equivalent to the inequality as follows: Pre-and postmultiplying both sides of (13) by diag{ −1 ,  −1 } and applying the change of related matrix variables as  =  −1 ,  = , the inequality (13) becomes On the other hand, reordering the expression of Θ = [ From ( 13)-( 15), if the LMI-based stabilization condition (9) holds, the inequality (12) evidently holds, which guarantees the robust asymptotical stability for the closed-loop uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time 2D systems (7).This completes the proof.
Remark 4. By using the Lyapunov stability theory, LMI-based stabilization conditions are given in Theorem 3 and the robust asymptotical stability for the closed-loop uncertain Roessertype discrete-time 2D systems (1) is ensured.Here, it is worth noting that the Roesser-type discrete-time 2D system's information is propagated along two independent directions and this fact makes the problem of control synthesis more complicated than before.However, the obtained result of this paper is formulated in the form of linear matrix inequalities, which can be easily solved via standard MATLAB software.
Remark 5.It is worth noting that the used Lyapunov matrix in ( 10) is a single Lyapunov matrix for all uncertain submodels and the corresponding results are often very conservative.To further reduce the conservatism, several new Lyapunov functions may be developed to overcome these drawbacks [21].
In the future, the search for relaxed stabilization conditions would be investigated by extending the methods given in [23] and [24].
Let  1 = 0.3 and  2 = 0.7; Figures 1 and 2 show the state trajectories of the system state variables  ℎ (, ) and  V (, ), respectively.It is easy to see that the state trajectories of  ℎ (, ) and  V (, ) are not asymptotically stable from Figures 1 and 2.
Under the control of (6), Figures 3 and 4 show the state trajectories of the system state variables  ℎ (, ) and  V (, ), respectively.Now, it is easy to see that the state trajectories of the system state variables are robust asymptotically stable from Figures 3 and 4; that is, the effectiveness of the proposed result given in Theorem 3 has been illustrated via this numerical example.
