Observer-Based Output-Feedback Asynchronous Control for Switched Fuzzy Systems.

This paper investigates an output-feedback control design problem for a class of switched continuous-time Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems. The considered fuzzy systems consist of several switching modes and each switching mode is described by T-S fuzzy models. In addition, there exists the asynchronous switching between the system switching modes and the controller switching modes. By using parallel distributed compensation design method, the output-feedback control schemes are developed based on state observers for the measurable and immeasurable premise variables cases. The sufficient conditions of ensuring the switched control system stabilization are proposed based on the theory of Lyapunov stability and average-dwell time methods. The controller and observer gains are obtained via two-step method. An illustrated numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed control approaches.
