Input-Output Finite-Time Stabilization of T-S Fuzzy Systems Through Quantized Control Strategy

The issues of input-output finite-time stability and stabilization of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems with time-varying state delay and exogenous input signal are studied in this article. For the stabilization process, a controller that does not share the same membership functions as the system is considered and the state feedback is quantized by using a logarithmic quantizer. The desired stability criterion for the addressed fuzzy system is first derived without the control term. It is then extended to the case in which the proposed controller is present. The stability criteria are given in the form of matrix inequalities, which are supported by the augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, generalized free-weighting-matrix approach and Finsler's lemma. Moreover, as a special case, an asymptotic stability criterion is obtained and used in a comparative study. As a result, the time-delay interval is much larger than some of the works published very recently, which is due to the augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional construction. In addition, the effectiveness and practicability of the theoretical findings are validated with simulation examples.
