New delay dependent robust stability criteria for T-S fuzzy systems with constant delay

This paper deals with the problem of delay dependent robust stability for T-S fuzzy time delay systems. The approach based on constructing a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional by dividing uniformly the delay interval into N segment with N is positive integer, and using Finsler’s lemma. This new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is chosen with different weighted matrices corresponding to different segments. The perturbations considered are norm bounded, and the results are expressed in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMIs). Numerical examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the present method, compared with some recent previous ones.     

Delay-range-dependent robust stabilization for uncertain T-S fuzzy control systems with interval time-varying delays

This paper is concerned with robust stabilization for a class of T-S fuzzy control systems with interval time-varying delays. An approach is proposed to significantly improve the system performance while reducing the number of scalar decision variables in linear matrix inequalities. The main points of the approach are: (i) two coupling integral inequalities are proposed to deal with some integral items in the derivation of the stability criteria; (ii) an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is constructed by including both the lower and upper bounds of the interval time-varying delays; and (iii) neither model transformation nor free weighting matrices are employed in the theoretical result derivation. As a result, some improved sufficient stability criteria are derived, and the maximum allowable delay bound and controller gains can be obtained simultaneously by solving an optimization problem. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Robust control for a class of T-S fuzzy systems with interval time-varying delay

The problem of delay-dependent stability analysis and controller design for a class of T-S fuzzy systems with interval state time-varying delay is considered. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, defining a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and introducing some free-weighting matrices, a new delay-dependent criterion is given to ensure the systems asymptotically stable. The merit of the proposed conditions lies in the less conservativeness than the existing ones, which is achieved by considering the mean of time-delay interval and the introduction of the free variables. By the concept of parallel distributed compensation (PDC), a delay-dependent condition for the existence of a fuzzy state feedback control law with memory is proposed. Another merit is the consideration of the memory of the controller. All conditions are shown in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which can be solved efficiently by using the LMI optimization techniques. Two numerical examples are given to illustrate the feasibility and validity of the proposed approach.     

Stability analysis of fuzzy large-scale systems with time delays in interconnections

The stability problem of fuzzy large-scale systems with time delays in interconnections is considered in this paper. The fuzzy large-scale system consists of J interconnected subsystems, which are represented by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy models. The stability conditions are derived using the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach. This condition is independent of time delay and does not need the solution of a Lyapunov equation or Riccati equation. A stabilization approach for the delayed fuzzy large-scale systems through fuzzy state feedback-based controller is also presented in this paper. Finally, an example is given to demonstrate the result.     

New Approach to Delay-Dependent Stability Analysis and Stabilization for Continuous-Time Fuzzy Systems With Time-Varying Delay

This paper is concerned with delay-dependent stability analysis and stabilization problems for continuous-time Takagi and Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems with a time-varying delay. A new method for the delay-dependent stability analysis and stabilization is suggested, which is less conservative than other existing ones. First, based on a fuzzy Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF), a delay-dependent stability criterion is derived for the open-loop fuzzy systems. In the derivation process, some free fuzzy weighting matrices are introduced to express the relationships among the terms of the system equation, and among the terms in the Leibniz-Newton formula. Then, a delay-dependent stabilization condition based on the so-called parallel distributed compensation (PDC) scheme is worked out for the closed-loop fuzzy systems. The proposed stability criterion and stabilization condition are represented in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) and compared with the existing ones via two examples. Finally, application to control of a truck-trailer is also given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.

New stability conditions for uncertain T-S fuzzy systems with interval time-varying delay

This paper focuses on the stability problem for uncertain T-S fuzzy systems with interval time-varying delay. The system uncertainties are assumed to be time-varying and norm-bounded. The time-varying delay is considered as either being differentiable uniformly bounded with delay-derivative bounded by constant interval, or being fast-varying case with no restrictions on the delay derivative. Since we employ a novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) which contains the information on the time-varying delay, and estimate the upper bound of its derivative less conservatively and adopt the convex optimization approach, some less conservative delay-derivative-dependent stability conditions are obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), without using any free weighting matrix. These conditions are derived that depends on both the upper and lower bounds of the delay derivatives. Finally, some numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and reduced conservatism of the proposed method.     

Stability analysis of uncertain neutral systems with discrete and distributed delays via the delay partition approach

This paper focuses on the stability analysis for neutral systems with discrete and distributed constant time-delays. Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals (LKFs) are constructed by non uniformly dividing the whole delay interval into multiple segments and choosing proper functionals with different weighting matrices coressponding to different segments in the LKFs. By employing these LKFs, some new delay-derivative-dependent stability criteria are established for the neutral system in the delay partition approach. By utilizing the delay partition approach, the obtained stability criteria are stated in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, some numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach less conservative than the existing ones.     

Delay-Dependent Stability Analysis and Controller Synthesis for Discrete-Time T–S Fuzzy Systems With Time Delays

Based on a novel delay-dependent piecewise Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (DPLKF), this paper presents delay-dependent stability analysis and synthesis methods for discrete-time Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems with time delays. It is shown that the stability and stabilization with some required performance can be established for the closed loop control system if there exists a DPLKF and that the DPLKF and the corresponding controller can be obtained by solving a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). New algorithms have also been developed to obtain the maximum value of the allowable constant delay and the suboptimal performance upper bound. An example is finally presented to demonstrate the efficiency and advantage of the proposed methods

This correspondence studies stability analysis and stabilization for discrete-time Takagi and Sugeno fuzzy systems with state delay. First, a new fuzzy Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) is constructed to derive a delay-dependent stability condition for open-loop fuzzy systems. Then, a delay-dependent stabilization approach based on a nonparallel distributed compensation scheme is provided for closed-loop fuzzy systems. Both state feedback and observer-based control cases are considered. The proposed stability and stabilization conditions are represented in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which can be solved efficiently by using existing LMI optimization techniques. Finally, two numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Free-matrix-based integral inequality for stability analysis of uncertain T-S fuzzy systems with time-varying delay

This paper focuses on further improved stability criteria for uncertain T-S fuzzy systems with timevarying delay by delay-partitioning approach and Free-Matrix-based integral inequality. A modified augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) is established by partitioning the delay in all integral terms. Then, on the basis of taking into account the independent upper bounds of the delay derivative in various delay intervals, some new results on tighter bounding inequalities, such as Peng-Park’s integral inequality and the Free-Matrix-based integral inequality are employed to effectively reduce the enlargement in bounding the derivative of LKF, therefore, less conservative results can be expected in terms of e _s and LMIs. Finally, three numerical examples are included to show that the proposed method is less conservative than existing ones.     

Optimal guaranteed cost control for an uncertain discrete T-S fuzzy system with time-delay

This paper considers the guaranteed cost control problem for a class of uncertain discrete T-S fuzzy systems with time delay and a given quadratic cost function. Sufficient conditions for the existence of such controllers are derived based on the linear matrix inequalities （LMI） approach by constructing a specific nonquadratic Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and a nonlinear PDC-like control law. A convex optimization problem is also formulated to select the optimal guaranteed cost controller that minimizes the upper bound of the closed-loop cost function. Finally, numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approaches.

The time delay is assumed to appear both in the state and control input. The purpose is design of a state-feedback fuzzy controller such that the resulting closed-loop system is exponentially stable in the mean square. By means of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, the relaxed LMI approach and mathematical analysis technique, delaydependent sufficient conditions for solvability of this problem are obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, a simulation example is given to demonstrate effectiveness and applicability of the theoretical results.     

Novel Stability Criteria for Linear Time-Delay Systems Using Lyapunov-Krasovskii Functionals With A Cubic Polynomial on Time-Varying Delay

One of challenging issues on stability analysis of time-delay systems is how to obtain a stability criterion from a matrix-valued polynomial on a time-varying delay.The first contribution of this paper is to establish a necessary and sufficient condition on a matrix-valued polynomial inequality over a certain closed interval.The degree of such a matrix-valued polynomial can be an arbitrary finite positive integer.The second contribution of this paper is to introduce a novel LyapunovKrasovskii functional,which includes a cubic polynomial on a time-varying delay,in stability analysis of time-delay systems.Based on the novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and the necessary and sufficient condition on matrix-valued polynomial inequalities,two stability criteria are derived for two cases of the time-varying delay.A well-studied numerical example is given to show that the proposed stability criteria are of less conservativeness than some existing ones.     

Stability analysis of linear systems with an interval time-varying delay – A delay-range-partition approach

In this paper, the stability analysis problem of linear systems with an interval time-varying delay is investigated. Firstly, an augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is constructed, which includes more information of the delay’s range and the delay’s derivative. Secondly, based on two improved integral inequalities which are less conservative than Jensen’s integral inequalities, a delay-range-partition (DRP) approach is proposed to estimate the upper bound of the derivative of the augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional. Then, less conservative stability criteria in the form of linear matrix inequality (LMI) are established no matter whether the lower bound of delay is zero or not. Finally, to illustrate the effectiveness of the stability criteria proposed in this paper, two numerical examples are given, and their results are compared with the existing results.     

Robust stability criteria for uncertain linear systems with interval time-varying delay

This paper considers the robust delay-dependent stability problem of a class of linear uncertain system with interval time-varying delay and proposes less conservative stability criteria for computing the maximum allowable bound of the delay range. Less conservatism of the proposed stability criteria is attributed to the delay-central point method of stability analysis, wherein the delay interval is partitioned into two subintervals of equal length, and the time derivative of a candidate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional based on delay decomposition technique is evaluated in each of these delay segments. In deriving the stability conditions in LMI framework, neither model transformations nor bounding techniques using free-weighting matrix variables are employed for dealing the cross-terms that emerge from the time derivative of the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional; instead, they are dealt using tighter integral inequalities. The proposed analysis subsequently yields a stability condition in convex LMI framework that can be solved using standard numerical packages. For deriving robust stability conditions, two categories of system uncertainties, namely, time-varying structured and polytopic-type uncertainties, are considered. The effectiveness of the proposed stability criteria is validated through standard numerical examples.     

On Delay-Dependent Approach for Robust Stability and Stabilization of T–S Fuzzy Systems With Constant Delay and Uncertainties

This paper investigates robust stability analysis and stabilization of delay and uncertain systems approximated by a Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model. An innovative approach is proposed to develop delay-dependent stability criteria of the systems, which makes use of less-redundant information to construct Lyapunov function, employs an integral equation method to handle the cross-product terms, and alleviates the requirements of the bounding technique and model transformations that have been popularly adopted in many existing references. This leads to significant improvement in the stability performance with far fewer unknown variables in the stability computation. From the derived stability criteria, a new memoryless state-feedback control is further developed. The controller gain and the maximum allowable delay bound of the closed-loop control system can be obtained simultaneously by solving an optimization problem. Numerical examples are also given to demonstrate the theoretical results.
