Multiple Models Book: Fuzzy Control based on linear models

Takagi--Sugeno fuzzy models can provide an effective representation of complex nonlinear systems in terms of fuzzy sets and fuzzy reasoning applied to a set of linear input--output submodels. Based on such models, two classes of stabilizing state-feedback controllers: linear time-invariant controllers and fuzzy controllers, can be designed by means of Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) methods. Stability analysis of the fuzzy feedback loop and design of stabilizing controllers are performed via the use of a quadratic Lyapunov function. Robustness to uncertainties in the premises or in the consequents of the models, as well as some performance criteria, can be addressed by solving optimisation problems using LMIs. This offers a tractable and systematic synthesis technique to model-based design of fuzzy controllers.
