Observer-based passive control for polynomial fuzzy singular systems with time-delay via sliding mode control

This paper is concerned with the problem of sliding mode observer design and observer-based sliding mode controller synthesis for polynomial fuzzy singular systems with time-delay. The polynomial fuzzy model is constructed for singular nonlinear system to eliminate the upper and lower bounds restriction of states in the system and reduce the calculation quantity. An integral-type sliding surface function, which has a stabilizing effect on the sliding variable, is proposed for the observer system. In terms of sum-of-squares approach, observer-based sliding mode passive controller is designed for the system with unknown membership functions, which drives the system trajectories onto the predefined sliding surface in a finite time, meanwhile, the stability and robust passivity of the closed-loop system are guaranteed. The information of membership functions is included in the stability conditions, which can reduce the conservatism. Finally, an example is performed to verify the merits of the method proposed.
