Abstract
Research on control of non-linear systems over the years has produced many results: control based on linearization, global feedback linearization, non-linear H∞ control, sliding mode control, variable structure control, state dependent Riccati equation control, etc [5]. This chapter will focus on fuzzy control techniques. Fuzzy control systems have recently shown growing popularity in non-linear system control applications. A fuzzy control system is essentially an effective way to decompose the task of non-linear system control into a group of local linear controls based on a set of design-specific model rules. Fuzzy control also provides a mechanism to blend these local linear control problems all together to achieve overall control of the original non-linear system. In this regard, fuzzy control technique has its unique advantage over other kinds of non-linear control techniques. Latest research on fuzzy control systems design is aimed to improve the optimality and robustness of the controller performance by combining the advantage of modern control theory with the Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model [7–10, 13, 14].
