Abstract

The interval type-2 fuzzy logic controller (IT2-FLC) is able to model and minimize the numerical and linguistic uncertainties associated with the inputs and outputs of a fuzzy logic system (FLS). This paper proposes an interval type-2 fuzzy PD (IT2F-PD) controller for nonlinear inverted pendulum. The proposed controller uses the Mamdani interval type-2 fuzzy rule based, interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2-FSs) with triangular membership function, and the Wu–Mendel uncertainty bound method to approximate the type-reduced set. The proposed controller is able to minimize the effect of the structure uncertainties and the external disturbances for the inverted pendulum. The results of the proposed controller are compared with the type-1 fuzzy PD (T1F-PD) controller in order to investigate the effectiveness and the robustness of the proposed controller. The simulation results show that the performance of the proposed controller is significantly improved compared with the T1F-PD controller. Also, the results show good performance over a wide range of the structure uncertainties and the effect of the external disturbances.
