A novel approach to decentralized sampled‐data fuzzy observer design for nonlinear interconnected systems

Abstract

AbstractThis paper presents the decentralized sampled‐data fuzzy observer design technique for nonlinear interconnected systems based on the Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model. The interconnected system is considered that the subsystems include uncertain interconnections and are not needed to satisfy stable conditions. Based on the continuous‐time Lyapunov functional approach, the observer design technique is proposed to minimize the interconnection bound to attenuation degree ratio and formulated into the linear matrix inequality formats. Finally, by simulation example, it shows the validity and superiority of the proposed observer design technique.
