The paper presents a robust parallel distributed compensation (PDC) fuzzy controller for a nonlinear and certain system in continuous time described by the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model. This controller is based on a new type of time-varying fuzzy sets (TVFS). These fuzzy sets are characterized by displacement of the kernels to the right or left of the universe of discourse, and they are directed by a well-defined criterion. In this work, we only focused on the movement of midpoint of the universe. The movements of this midpoint are optimized by particle swarm optimization (PSO) approach.
