Abstract
This paper proposes an improvement on observer design of discrete-time fuzzy systems based on an alterable weights method. Different from the recent result, a more effective ranking-based switching mechanism is developed by introducing a bank of alterable weights for the sake of making use of the size difference information of the normalized fuzzy weighting functions more freely than before. Therefore, a positive result can be provided in this paper, that is, less conservative conditions of designing feasible fuzzy observers can be obtained than those existing results, while the computational cost of designing feasible fuzzy observers is even less than the up-to-date one. Finally, two numerical examples are given to show the progressiveness of the proposed method.
