Outlier-resistant observer-based control for interval type-2 T-S fuzzy systems under adaptive event-triggered protocols

This paper is concerned with the outlier-resistant observer-based control problem for a class of interval type-2 (IT2) Takagi–Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems under adaptive event-triggered protocol (AETP). To improve the efficiency of resource utilization, AETP is mainly through an adjustable threshold parameter to dynamically schedule the data transmission, which occurs in the sensor-to-controller channel. In order to resist the abnormal measurement values, an output saturation composition is constructed in the observer. With the aid of Lyapunov theory, sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure the desired performance. Furthermore, the desired controller is designed for a class of IT2 T-S fuzzy systems. The combination of orthogonal decomposition and linear matrix inequalities is implemented to deal with the nonlinear coupling terms in the gain solving process. Finally, a numerical example is employed to justify the practicality and effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
