Abstract

The dynamic output feedback H (DOFH) control under imperfect premise matching (IPM) is studied in this paper for continuous-time Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems. Different from the existing results, the DOFH switching controller, which enjoys membership functions (MFs) distinct from the fuzzy systems, is designed. First, the non-quadratic Lyapunov function (NQLF) based on MFs is utilized to design the controller. The time derivatives of MFs are addressed by the switching strategy. Second, a method based on linear matrix inequality (LMI) is given to make the controller gains solvable. Third, an improved method is developed to incorporate the more boundary information of MFs into the stability conditions to reduce conservatism. Finally, three examples are used to certify the advantage of the approach.
