Observers of fuzzy descriptor systems with time-delays (Q1724799)

Summary: For discrete fuzzy descriptor systems with time-delays, the problem of designing fuzzy observers is investigated in this paper. Based on an equivalent transformation, discrete fuzzy descriptor systems with time-delays are converted into standard discrete systems with time-delays. Then, via linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, both delay-dependent and delay-independent conditions for the existence of fuzzy state observers are obtained. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the proposed method.
