This paper investigates the problem of H∞ performance analysis for continous–time systems with two additive time-varying delays in the state. Our objective is focused on stability analysis of a continuous system with two time- varying delays with an H∞ disturbance attenuation level γ. By exploiting Lyapunov-Krasovski functional and introducing free weighting matrix variables, LMI stability condition have been derived. Keywords: H∞ performance analysis ; Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) ; time delay systems. 1 Introduction Time delay is the property of a physical system by which the response to an applied force (action) is delayed in its effect. When information or energy is physically transmitted from one place to another, there is a delay associated with the transmission [1]. It is well known that the presence of time-delay is a source of instability [2]. Xia, et al. [3] presents some basic theories of stability and synthesis of systems with time-delay, in the form of  , where τ(t) represents time-varying delay. Wu, et al. x(t) Ax(t) A x(t (t)) d [4] presents a method referred to as
