In this paper, we address a synthesis problem of the parameter-dependent output feedback H∞ control for linear parameter-varying systems with time-delay. The scheme adopts the parameter-dependent past state information to construct the dynamic output feedback controller. In this case, on basis of the quadratic Lyapunov functional with parameter-dependence, we analyze the parameter-dependent H∞ stability conditions for the closedloop time-delayed linear parameter-varying system in terms of linear matrix inequalities. However, this stability condition is of an infinite-dimension. To derive computationally tractable criteria for the dynamic output feedback controller, several slack variables and a convex relaxation technique are employed to have the infinite-dimensional condition of linear matrix inequalities cast into a finite dimensional convex optimization problem. By solving the convex optimization problem, we harvest the dynamic output feedback controller with memory for the time-delayed linear parameter-varying system. Finally, two examples are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
