New Stability Criterion for Continuous-Time Takagi–Sugeno Fuzzy Systems With Time-Varying Delay

In this technical paper, a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) is designed to study the stability of continuous-time Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems with time-varying delay. The integrand of the LKF depends on integral variable and time t which can help to reduce the number of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Then, a new stability criterion is derived by analyzing the sign of the time derivatives of membership functions. Compared with the...
