ABSTRACT
This paper is concerned with the problem of observer-based reliable passive control for uncertain Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy systems with time-delay and actuator faults. By employing Lyapunov stability theory, fault treatment method and linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), a sufficient condition on the existence of an observer-based reliable passive controller is given. Further, the LMI conditions are proposed for the observer-based reliable passive controller design. The gain of reliable controller and observer can be obtained by solving the proposed LMIs. Using the reliable passive controller, the closed-loop system is not only internally stable but also strictly passive even though some actuator components fail and system state fails to be measured completely. Finally, a truck-trailer system example is given to verify the effectiveness and advantages of the designed approach.
