Control-Scheduling Codesign for NCS based Fuzzy Systems

In the present paper, a fuzzy codesign approach is proposed to deal with the controller and scheduler design for a networked control system which is physically distributed with a shared communication network. The proposed fuzzy controller is applied to generate the control with different sampling-actuation periods, the configuration supposes a strict actuation period disappears the jitter. The proposed fuzzy scheduling is designed to select the sampling-actuation period. So, the fuzzy codesign reduces the rate of transmission when the system is stable through the scheduler while the controller adjusts the control signal. The fuzzy codesign guarantees the stability of all the system if the network uncertainties do not exceed an upper bound and is a low computational cost method implemented with an embedded system. An unstable, nonlinear system is used to evaluate the proposed approach and compared to a hybrid control, the results show greater robustness to multiple lost packets and time delays much larger than the sampling period.
