Delay-Variation-Dependent Criteria on Stability and Stabilization for Discrete-Time T-S Fuzzy Systems With Time-Varying Delays

This article is concerned with the stability and stabilization of delayed discrete-time T-S fuzzy systems. The purpose is to develop less conservative stability analysis and state-feedback controller design methods. First, a matrix-separation-based inequality is proposed, which can provide a tighter estimation for the augmented summation term. Then, by constructing a delay-product-type Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, using the proposed inequality to estimate its forward difference and using a cubic functional negative-determination lemma to handle nonconvex conditions with respect to the delay, a delay and its variation-dependent stability criterion are obtained. Moreover, the corresponding controller design method for closed-loop delayed fuzzy systems is derived via parallel distributed compensation scheme. Finally, two examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and merits of the proposed approaches.
