Novel Stability Criteria for T--S Fuzzy Systems
2014
In this paper, novel stability conditions for Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems are presented. The so-called nonquadratic membership-dependent Lyapunov function is first proposed, which is formulated in a higher order form of both the system states and the normalized membership functions than existing techniques in the literature. Then, new membership-dependent stability conditions are developed by the new Lyapunov function approach. It is shown that the conservativeness of the obtained criteria can be further reduced as the degree of the Lyapunov function increases. Two numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and less conservativeness of the obtained theoretical resul…
Stability analysis and controller design for a class of T-S fuzzy Markov jump system with uncertain expectation of packet dropouts
2013
This paper is concerned with an H∞ control for a class of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy Markov jump system under unreliable communication links. It is assumed that the transition probabilities determining the dynamical behavior of the underlying system are partially unknown and the communication links between the plant and the controller are imperfect (the packet dropouts occur intermittently). In this paper, a more practical scenario is considered in the setting, i.e., the expectation of packet losses represented as a description of Bernoulli-distributed stochastic process is uncertain. Attention is focused on the design of H∞ controllers such that the closed-loop system is stochastically stab…
Trajectory Decentralized Fuzzy Control of Multiple UAVs.
2008
This paper considers a complete position and heading rate control system for multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with constant altitude. A decentralized trajectory planning algorithm is proposed, where the UAVs will avoid collisions while moving. In order to stabilize the UAVs in the reference planned trajectories and ensure the boundedness of the control velocities, a fuzzy control law is proposed with Lyapunov's stability proof. Simulation experiments developed in Matlab environment confirm the effectiveness and the robustness of the proposed control algorithm with respect to possible turbulence disturbances perturbing the nominal motion of the UAVs.
Dynamic Output-Feedback Passivity Control for Fuzzy Systems under Variable Sampling
2013
Published version of an article in the journal: Mathematical Problems in Engineering. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2013/767093 Open Access This paper concerns the problem of dynamic output-feedback control for a class of nonlinear systems with nonuniform uncertain sampling via Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy control approach. The sampling is not required to be periodic, and the state variables are not required to be measurable. A new type fuzzy dynamic output-feedback sampled-data controller is constructed, and a novel time-dependent Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is chosen for fuzzy systems under variable sampling. By using Lyapunov stability theory, a sufficie…
A Self-Adapting Approach for Forecast-Less Scheduling of Electrical Energy Storage Systems in a Liberalized Energy Market
2013
In this paper, an original scheduling approach for optimal dispatch of electrical Energy Storage Systems (ESS) in modern distribution networks is proposed. The control system is based on fuzzy rules and does not use forecasts since it repairs the past history according to the real time data on the electrical energy cost, renewable energy production and load. When the system detects a worsening of performances, the fuzzy logic rule-based control system self-adapts its membership functions using an economic indicator. The common use, in the relevant literature, of forecasted values in such systems can lead to large errors and economic losses. Moreover the speed of calculation guaranteed by th…
Improving Performance of Evolutionary Algorithms with Application to Fuzzy Control of Truck Backer-Upper System
2013
Published version of an article in the journal: Mathematical Problems in Engineering. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2013/709027 Open access We propose a method to improve the performance of evolutionary algorithms (EA). The proposed approach defines operators which can modify the performance of EA, including Levy distribution function as a strategy parameters adaptation, calculating mean point for finding proper region of breeding offspring, and shifting strategy parameters to change the sequence of these parameters. Thereafter, a set of benchmark cost functions is utilized to compare the results of the proposed method with some other well-known algorithms.…
Controller Design Under Fuzzy Pole-Placement Specifications: An Interval Arithmetic Approach
2006
This paper discusses fuzzy specifications for robust controller design, as a way to define different specification levels for different plants in a family and allow the control of performance degradation. Controller synthesis will be understood as mapping a fuzzy plant onto a desired fuzzy set of closed-loop specifications. In this context, a fuzzy plant is considered as a possibility distribution on a given plant space. In particular, pole placement in linear plants with fuzzy parametric uncertainty is discussed, although the basic idea is general and could be applied to other settings. In the case under consideration, the controller coefficients are the solution of a fuzzy linear system o…
Solving a class of fuzzy linear programs by using semi-infinite programming techniques
2004
This paper deals with a class of Fuzzy Linear Programming problems characterized by the fact that the coefficients in the constraints are modeled as LR-fuzzy numbers with different shapes. Solving such problems is usually more complicated than finding a solution when all the fuzzy coefficients have the same shape. We propose a primal semi-infinite algorithm as a valuable tool for solving this class of Fuzzy Linear programs and, we illustrate it by means of several examples.
A Stochastic Soft Constraints Fuzzy Model for a Portfolio Selection Problem
2006
The financial market behavior is affected by several non-probabilistic factors such as vagueness and ambiguity. In this paper we develop a multistage stochastic soft constraints fuzzy program with recourse in order to capture both uncertainty and imprecision as well as to solve a portfolio management problem. The results we obtained confirm the studies carried out in literature addressed to integrate stochastic and possibilistic programming.
Notice of Violation of IEEE Publication Principles: Robust Observer Design for Unknown Inputs Takagi–Sugeno Models
2013
This paper deals with the observer design for Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy models subject to unknown inputs and disturbance affecting both states and outputs of the system. Sufficient conditions to design an unknown input T-S observer are given in linear matrix inequality (LMI) terms. Both continuous-time and discrete-time cases are studied. Relaxations are introduced by using intermediate variables. Extension to the case of unmeasured decision variables is also given. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the given results.
