Abstract
This paper is concerned with the stability problem of nonlinear multiple time-delay singularly perturbed (NDSP) systems. To overcome the effect of modeling error between the reduced-order model of the NDSP plant and Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy models, a robustness design of model-based fuzzy control is proposed in this study. A stability criterion in terms of Lyapunov’s direct method is derived to guarantee the asymptotic stability of NDSP systems. According to this criterion, a model-based fuzzy controller is then synthesized via the technique of parallel distributed compensation (PDC) to stabilize the NDSP system. If the designed fuzzy controller cannot stabilize the NDSP system, a high-frequency signal, commonly referred to as dither, is simultaneously introduced to stabilize it. Based on the relaxed method, the NDSP system can be stabilized by regulating appropriately the parameters of dither. If the dither’s frequency is high enough, the output of the dithered reduced system and that of its corresponding mathematical model – the relaxed reduced system – can be made as close as desired. This makes it possible to obtain a rigorous prediction of the stability of the dithered reduced system based on the one of the relaxed reduced system.
