A criterion of robustness intelligent nonlinear control for multiple time-delay systems based on fuzzy Lyapunov methods

A control system with state feedback controllers, in which the fuzzy Lyapunov approach is developed for the stability criterion, is studied. The proposed intelligent design provides a systematic and effective framework for the control systems. The global nonlinear controller is constructed based on T-S (Takagi-Sugeno) fuzzy controller design techniques, blending all such local state feedback controllers. Based on this design, the stability conditions of a multiple time-delay system are derived in terms of the fuzzy Lyapunov theory. The effectiveness and the feasibility of the proposed controller design method are demonstrated through numerical simulations.
