This paper deals with the stabilization problem for discrete-time nonlinear systems that are represented by the Takagi - Sugeno fuzzy model. By the multiple fuzzy Lyapunov function and the three-index algebraic combination technique, a new stabilization condition is developed. The condition is expressed in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) and proved to be less conservative than existing results in the literature. Finally, a truck-trailer system is given to illustrate the novelty of the proposed approach.
