Nonlinear system H∞ fuzzy control within Takagi-Sugeno framework

The paper deals with the problem of constrained H
∞
fuzzy control for a class of continuous-time nonlinear systems, represented by Takagi-Sugeno models. On the basis of the Lyapunov stability criterion and H
∞
norm performances, the sufficient conditions of stabilization are outlined and adjusted for systems operating in a forced mode. Numerical simulation is given to illustrate the design procedure and to validate the performances of the proposed approach.
