Zhang, M.Shi, P.Shen, C.Wu, Z.-G.2020-09-082020-09-082020IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 2020; 28(8):1600-16091063-67061941-0034http://hdl.handle.net/2440/127423This paper is focused on the static output feedback (SOF) control problem for a class of switched nonlinear systems with actuator faults. By means of the Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model, the switched nonlinear plant is described by a family of switched fuzzy systems. Considering transmission failures may occur between controller and actuator, a reliable SOF controller against actuator faults is designed. Sufficient conditions are developed to guarantee the existence of the reliable SOF controller. Furthermore, an iterative algorithm is designed to determine the controller gains, which avoids the conservatism brought by the traditional singular value decomposition method. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, a numerical example is exploited and simulation results are also presented.en© 2019 IEEE.
