Model-Based Fuzzy Controller Design With Common Observability Gramian Assignment

Abstract

Almost all robust properties of linear systems can be related directly to properties of the controllability or observability Gramian. A model-based fuzzy controller for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems will be developed in this paper to achieve a common observability Gramian. Design of a model-based fuzzy controller begins by assigning a certain common observability Gramian. The nonlinear systems considered in this paper are represented by Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models. An application to the inverted pendulum system will be given to demonstrate the effects of the present design method.
