Robust H∞ control for discrete-time fuzzy systems with infinite-distributed delays

Abstract

This paper is concerned with the robust H∞ control problem for a class of discrete-time Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems with time delays and uncertain parameters. The time delay is assumed to be infinitely distributed in the discrete-time domain, and the uncertain parameters are norm-bounded. By using the linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique, sufficient conditions are derived for ensuring the exponential stability as well as the H infin performance for the closed-loop fuzzy control system. It is also shown that the controller gain can be characterized in terms of the solution to a set of LMIs, which can be easily solved by using standard software packages. A simulation example is exploited in order to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design procedures.
