This paper is concerned with non-quadratic stabilization of continuous-time Takagi-Sugeno (TS) models. The well-known problem of handling time-derivatives of membership functions (MFs) as to obtain conditions in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) is overcome by reducing global goals to the estimation of a region of attraction. Instead of parallel distributed compensation (PDC), a non-PDC control law is proposed according to the non-quadratic nature of the Lyapunov function. Examples are provided to show the advantages over the quadratic and some non-quadratic approaches.
This paper presents a relaxed approach for stabilization and H ∞ disturbance rejection of continuous-time Takagi-Sugeno models in descriptor form. Based on Finsler's Lemma, the control law can be conveniently decoupled from a non-quadratic Lyapunov function. These developments include and outperform previous results on the same subject while preserving the advantage of being expressed as linear matrix inequalities. Two examples are presented to illustrate the improvements.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
