Robust Model Predictive Control of Uncertain Discrete-Time T-S Fuzzy Systems

In this paper, a robust constrained model predictive control approach for discrete-time uncertain Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems is developed. Based on the non-parallel distributed compensation law (non-PDC), a fuzzy predictive controller is designed to stabilize the resulting closed-loop system via an extended non-quadratic Lyapunov function. Slack matrices and collection matrix are employed to obtain less conservative results and sufficient conditions for the solvability of this problem is provided in the form of linear matrix inequalities, the real-time fuzzy predictive control law is easily calculated and implemented, at each sampling time, which minimizes the objective function over infinite moving horizon subjects to input and output constraints. To demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability, the simulation results on a continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTR) is illustrated by the fuzzy model predictive control approach we proposed.
