Robust Guaranteed Cost Control of Uncertain Fuzzy Systems Under Sampled-Data Inputs

Abstract

A dynamical system is usually modeled as a continuous-time system, while the control input is applied at discrete instants. This is called a sampled-data control system. This paper is concerned with robust sampled-data control with guaranteed cost for uncertain fuzzy systems. The sampled-data control input is usually the zero-order hold and hence has a piecewise-continuous delay. Thus, an input delay system approach to robust sampled-data control is introduced. Sufficient robust guaranteed cost performance conditions for the closed-loop system with a sampled-data state feedback controller are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities(LMIs). Such robust conditions are derived via descriptor approach to fuzzy time-delay systems under the assumption that a sampling interval may vary but is not greater than some prescribed number. A design method of robust sampled-data guaranteed cost controller for uncertain fuzzy systems. Numerical examples are given to illustrate our sampled-data state feedback control.
