This paper is concerned with robust stabilization for a class of T–S fuzzy control systemswith interval time-varying delays. An approach is proposed to significantly improve thesystem performance while reducing the number of scalar decision variables in linearmatrix inequalities. The main points of the approach are: (i) two coupling integral inequal-ities are proposed to deal with some integral items in the derivation of the stability criteria;(ii) an appropriate Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional is constructed by including both thelower and upper bounds of the interval time-varying delays; and (iii) neither model trans-formation nor free weighting matrices are employed in the theoretical result derivation. Asa result, some improved sufficient stability criteria are derived, and the maximum allow-able delay bound and controller gains can be obtained simultaneously by solving an opti-mization problem. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of theproposed approach.

1. Introduction
Fuzzy systems in the form of the Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) model [25] have attracted rapidly growing interest in recent years[14]. It has shown that the T–S model-based approach provides a powerful and systematical control methodology to somecomplex nonlinear systems. It combines the flexible fuzzy logic theory and fruitful linear system theory into a unified frame-work to approximate a wide range of complex nonlinear systems, especially those with incomplete information [20,25,29].During the past decades, many industrial applications via T–S model-based control have been reported in the open literature,see, for example [5,23,24] and references therein.
Recently, a new type of time delays, i.e. interval time-varying delays, have been proposed from theoretical and practicalengineering systems and have attracted much attention in the area of time-delay systems, see for examples[9–11,13,14,16,20]. A typical example of dynamical systems with interval time-varying delays is networked control systems[12,18,33,34]. It should be mentioned that compared with the Lyapunov–Razumikhin approach [1,27], the Lyapunov–Krasovskii approach [2,8,31] employed in stability analysis and controller synthesis of T–S fuzzy systems with time-varyingdelays can usually provide less conservative results in particular when time delay is small [14].
Notice that in the existing literature there are some nice results available for stability analysis and controller synthesis ofT–S fuzzy systems with time-varying delays [1,3,4,17,19,29,30,32]. However, there are a few results reported in the literature

on delay-range-dependent stabilization for T–S fuzzy systems with time-varying delays [14,16,26]. In the result mentionedabove, some free weighting matrices were introduced in the theoretical results derivation. It should be pointed out thatoverly using free weighting matrices will lead to significant computational demand, especially when a large number of fuzzyrules are used [12,20,21]; in designing a controller, some free weighting matrices are required to be tuned to obtain subop-timal and parameter-dependent solutions; for example, in [26], three parameters qi (i = 2,3,4) must be pre-determined inorder to guarantee Mi = qiM1, where Mi (i = 2,3,4) are free weighting matrices and M1 must be a nonsingular matrix; this pro-cedure introduces some conservativeness because it is dependent on prescribed constants qi. How to tune qi is still an openquestion since the searching scopes of qi are infinite [12,20,22]. Therefore, how to overcome the disadvantage of the freeweighing matrices mentioned above motivates the current study.
In this paper, we will develop an approach to stability analysis and controller design for uncertain T–S fuzzy control sys-tems with interval time-varying delays. In the approach, we will introduce two coupling integral inequalities to deal withsome integral items, construct an appropriate Lyapunov functional by including both the lower and the upper bounds ofthe interval time-varying delays. Then we will derive some delay-range-dependent stability criteria, which will be less con-servative than some existing results in the existing literature. Based on the stability criteria, we will design feedback control-lers for the system under consideration. The feedback gains can be derived by solving a constrained convex optimizationproblem. We will give two examples to show the effectiveness of the design method.

In this paper, a T–S fuzzy-model-based controller will be designed via parallel distributed compensation (PDC) to stabilizethe studied system (4). The PDC control structure utilizes a nonlinear state feedback controller which mirrors the structure ofthe associated T–S model. The gains of the controller can be determined by using a linear matrix inequality (LMI) formulation[28].
Assume that the following rules are given
If h1ðtÞ is Mi1 and; . . . ; and hgðtÞ is Mi

Then uðtÞ ¼ KixðtÞ; i ¼ 1; . . . ; rð7Þ

where Kj (j = 1,2, . . . ,r) are controller gains to be determined. Notice that the controller only depends on the parameters Ki

In this paper, we will consider the following two scenarios of the interval time-varying delay s(t):
Case 1 s(t) is a differentiable function satisfying
0 6 s1 6 sðtÞ 6 s2; 0 6 _sðtÞ 6 l < 1; 8t P 0 ð10Þ
Case 2 s(t) is a continuous function satisfying
0 6 s1 6 sðtÞ 6 s2; 8t P 0 ð11Þ
where s1, s2 and l are known constants.
Remark 1. Both Cases 1 and 2 consider the upper and lower bounds of the interval time-varying delays. Case 1 is a specialcase of Case 2. If the time-varying delay is differentiable and l < 1, we can obtain less conservative results using Case 1 thanthose using Case 2. However, if the time-varying delay is not differentiable, only Case 2 can be used to handle the situation.
The purpose of this paper is to design a state feedback controller (8) under Cases 1 and 2 such that the closed-loop system(9) is asymptotically stable.
To end this section, we give two improved lemmas, which are useful in deriving our main results. Lemma 1 is derivedbased on Jensen’s integral inequality [7], which presents a tighter bound to deal with integral terms without ignoring anyuseful items. Lemma 2 is used to transfer the time-varying matrix inequality to a set of solvable matrix inequalities.
Lemma 1. For any constant matrix R 2 Rn�n;R ¼ RT > 0, scalars s1 6 s(t) 6 s2, and vector function _x : ½�s2;�s1� ! Rn, such thatthe following integration is well defined, then

Proof
(1) When s(t) = s1 (respectively, s(t) = s2), it can be seen that the item fT1ðtÞXðRÞf1ðtÞ (respectively, fT
2ðtÞXðRÞf2ðtÞ) in therightmost of Eq. (12) always equals to zero. Then, Eq. (12) will be simplified as the following Jensen’s inequality [7].

Re-arranging term of (15) yields the result (12). This completes the proof. h
Lemma 2. For given matrices P 2 Rm�m; nðtÞ 2 Rm�1; X 2 Rm�m and F 2 Rm�m;X 6 0and F 6 0, scalars s1 6 s(t) 6 s2, if
nTðtÞ½Pþ 3Xþ F�nðtÞ 6 0 ð16ÞnTðtÞ½PþXþ 3F�nðtÞ 6 0 ð17Þ
then
nTðtÞfPþ ½1þ p1�Xþ ½1þ p2�FgnðtÞ 6 0 ð18Þ
where p1 and p2 are defined in Lemma 1, and when s(t) = s1, nT(t)Xn(t) � 0, when sðtÞ ¼ s2; nTðtÞFnðtÞ � 0.
Proof. Define uðtÞ ¼ nTðtÞ½PþXþ F�nðtÞ. First, when s(t) = s1(respectively, s(t) = s2), note that nT(t)Xn(t) � 0 and F 6 0(respectively, nT(t)Fn(t) � 0 and X 6 0), then (18) is readily derived by (16) (respectively, (17)). Secondly, whens1 < s(t) < s2, we consider u(t) > 0 and u(t) 6 0, respectively.
� If u(t) > 0, multiplying (16) and (17) by 12 e and 1
2e, respectively, and summing them up, we have
uðtÞ2

Then based on uðtÞ2 eþ uðtÞ
2e P uðtÞ, we have (18).� If u(t) 6 0, due to X 6 0 and F 6 0, then (18) holds obviously.
This completes the proof. h
Remark 2. It is worth mentioning that Lemmas 1 and 2 include the constant delay as a special case, i.e. when s1 = s(t) = s2,both the rightmost and leftmost terms in (16) equals to zero, and (16)–(18) are fully equivalent due tonT(t)Xn(t) = nT(t)Fn(t) � 0.
Remark 3. There are some remarkable features in above Lemma 1, which can be highlighted as (i) compared with someexisting results [14,30], in which free weighting matrices are introduced to deal with integral terms, the approach to bedeveloped in this paper based on Lemma 1 does not employ any free weighting matrices and thus can be expected to givesimpler but improved results; (ii) without ignoring any useful terms, e.g.
R t�sðtÞt�s2
_xTðvÞR _xðvÞdv in (15); and (iii) without arbi-trarily magnifying �(s2 � s1) as �(s(t) � s1) or �(s2 � s(t)) in (15). Clearly, magnifying �(s2 � s1) as �(s(t) � s1) or�(s2 � s(t)) in (15), Eq. (16) will be simplified as

However, one can expect to obtain less conservative results based on (16) than those based on (20). Therefore, Lemma 1plays an important role in the derivation of less conservative criteria for robust delay-dependent stability analysis in thispaper.
Remark 4. Combining Lemma 1 with Lemma 2 in the derivation, less conservative results can be expected, due to the factthat the additional information eXþ 1
e F in (18) is effectively expressed by (16) and (17). This will be demonstrated laterthrough numerical examples.
3. Robust stability analysis
In this section, we analyze robust stability of the closed-loop system (9). First, we consider the stability of the nominalclosed-loop system (9). We now state and establish the following result.
Theorem 1. For some given constants 0 6 s1 6 s2, l, and matrices Kj, the equilibrium of the nominal closed-loop system (9) isasymptotically stable in the large for any s(t) satisfying (10), if there exist real matrices P > 0, R1 > 0, R2 > 0 and Qi > 0 (i = 1,2,3)with appropriate dimensions such that the following linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) hold for i, j = 1,2, . . . , r, 1 6 i < j 6 r ande = 0,1

From (27) and (28), we have _VðxtÞ < 0. This means _VðxtÞ < �qkxðtÞk2 for a sufficiently small q > 0, and ensures the equilib-rium of system (9) is asymptotically stable for any delay satisfying s1 6 s(t) 6 s2. This completes the proof. h
From the proof of Theorem 1, one can seen that if (21) and (22) are satisfied, then the equilibrium of the nominal closed-loop system (9) is asymptotically stable in the large for any membership function-dependent li(h(t)) and lj(h(t)), that is, thesystem has robustness to any fuzzy membership functions described in (5).
Remark 5. Notice that Theorem 1 includes the constant delay, that is s(t) = s1 = s2, as a special case. However, in this case, asmentioned in Remark 2, the proposed method is not effective to reduce conservativeness, and results in the superfluousvariables, such as Q2, Q3 and R2,included in constructed Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional (23). Therefore, in the following, weonly pay attention on time varying delay case.
Remark 6. A key feature of the proposed approach is that neither model transformation nor free weighting matrices areemployed. Particularly, none of the useful items are being ignored in the derivation of our stability criteria. Therefore, theresults derived in this paper are expected to be less conservative than some existing results. Moreover, the approach pro-posed in this paper employs a smaller number of scalar decision variables in LMIs. This will be demonstrated later throughnumerical examples.

Remark 7. From the proof of Theorem 1, the basic procedure of our approach can be generalized as follows: (i) construct anew type of Lyapunov functional candidate. Generally speaking, under the framework of Lyapunov’s stability theory, con-struct an appropriate Lyapunov functional candidate is a key step. It is our belief that one can always obtain improved resultsif the Lyapunov functional candidate is tweaked a little. For example, the following items: (1) simple integrating factors; (2)quadratic integrating factors related with the lower and upper delay bounds; (3) augmented integrating items included inLyapunov functional candidate will help to obtain the less conservative results; (ii) construct an uncorrelated augmentedmatrix n(t), in which none of the terms are a linear combination of other terms in n(t) and thus free-weighting matricesbecome unnecessary; (iii) employ Lemma 1 and Jensen’s inequality [7], e.g. (25) and (26); and (iv) introduce Lemma 2 toensure the feasibility of Eq. ( 28) based on Eqs. (21) and (22).
Theorem 1 provides a stability criterion for the nominal closed-loop system (9). When taking parameter uncertaintiesinto account, by Theorem 1, we can derive the following result for robust stability of the closed-loop system (9).
Theorem 2. For some given constants 0 6 s1 < s2, l, and matrices Kj, the equilibrium of the closed-loop system (9) is robustlyasymptotically stable in the large for any s(t) satisfying (10), if there exist real matrices P > 0, R1 > 0, R2 > 0 and Qi > 0 (i = 1,2,3)with appropriate dimensions, scalars ki > 0, such that the following LMIs hold for i, j = 1,2, . . . , r, 1 6 i < j 6 r and e = 0,1

When there is no information about the derivative of the interval time-varying delays, condition (10) cannot be directlyused. Instead, condition (11) has to be employed for stability analysis. Setting Q2 , 0 in Theorem 2, we have the followingresult.

In this section, we design the state feedback controller for the closed-loop system (9). When designing the state feedbackcontroller, the control objective is guaranteeing robust asymptotic stability of the equilibrium of the closed-loop system (9).

For this optimization problem, similar to those in [6,19], the cone complementary linearization algorithm can be adoptedto solve this non-convex problem. Detailed discussion of this algorithm is omitted in this paper.
Remark 9. Notice that within the framework of T–S fuzzy models and PDC control design, conditions for the stability andperformance of a nonlinear system can be stated in terms of the feasibility of a set of LMIs. The main advantage of LMIs isthat while most problems with multiple constraints or objectives lack analytical solutions in terms of matrix equations, theyoften bring a numerical resolution to control problems in the LMI framework. This makes LMI-based design a valuablealternative to classical ‘‘analytical’’ methods. Due to the fact that there exist very efficient numerical algorithms fordetermining the feasibility of LMIs, such as Matlab/LMI toolbox, even large scale analysis and design problems arecomputationally tractable, so the employed method of this work is practical to real world applications [5,23,24,28]. However,simple and affordable of an LMI approach to practical on-line control engineering is still changeling.
5. Numerical examples
Generally, there are two methods to obtain the T–S fuzzy models in the literature. One common method is based on thefuzzy identification and reasoning by using the input–output data [25]. If there are sufficient number of noiseless output datafor the identification, then simple local linear dynamic systems with corresponding linguistic description could be identifiedto approximately express original nonlinear systems. However, when the input–output data are difficult to be obtained, thenthis method is not available again. Another method to derive concerned models is based on the concept of linearization [14].It is based on the replacement of the original nonlinear systems by a set of local linear dynamic systems, whose coefficientsare obtained by setting the nonlinear items to linear items in some local subspaces. This method leads to different solutionson the basis of the particular criteria of linearization adopted. Moreover, the prerequisite condition of this method is that thenonlinear system models, that is, the mechanism model must be known a priori. In fact, the mechanism model is difficult tobe derived for most of practical systems. The choice between these two methods based on the usability of input–output dataand the availability of nonlinear model for the system under study.
Assume that the nonlinear model and the mechanism model have been known, this section gives two numerical exam-ples to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The T–S fuzzy model of Example 1 is derived from a time-delayed nonlinear system [16,26], and the modeling of Example 2 is obtained from a practical backing-up control of a com-puter simulated truck-trailer [1].
Example 1. Consider the following time-delayed nonlinear system:

The calculated maximum allowable delay bounds are tabulated in Tables 1 and 2 under different lower delay bounds s1 andwith known or unknown time delay differential l, respectively. The second column of Table 1 shows the case of constantdelay, that is, s1 = s2 = s. It is seen that most recent methods including those proposed in this paper give the same results = 1.5974.Considering the interval time-varying delay case, the methods developed in Li et al. [15], Wu and Li [30], and Chen et al.[3] fail to make any conclusion as they are proposed for constant delay or time-varying delay. Without any information aboutthe derivative of the time delay, the third through sixth columns of Table 1 list the upper delay bounds derived from Tian andPeng [26], Lien et al. [16] and the method proposed in this paper. It is seen from Table 1 that the results obtained from bothCorollaries 1 and 2 in this paper are better than those obtained from the other methods. However, the results obtained fromCorollary 1 are much better than Corollary 2 in this paper, since none of useful items are ignored in the proof of Theorem 1.
The last column of Table 1 also shows that the method proposed in this paper utilizes the least number of scalar decisionvariables in LMIs for stability computation and thus is more computationally efficient than other methods (Num. var meansnumber of variables in Tables). Wu and Li [30] requires 9 variables; Lien et al. [16] needs 7 variables; and Tian and Peng [26]uses 8 + 8r variables, where r is the number of fuzzy rules. However, our results are dependent on 6 unknown variables,which also show the effectiveness of our proposed method. When the delay differential l is known, our results are listedin Table 2, it is also seen from which that the similar improved results can be obtained.

Under different levels of lower delay bound s1, Table 3 lists the results of some feasible solutions K1 and K2 and the corre-sponding maximum allowable delay bound s2 that guarantee asymptotic stability of the studied system.
With initial state conditions [0.5p �0.75p �2]T, Fig. 1 depicts the state responses of the nonlinear system under the abovedesigned fuzzy controller with 0 6 s(t) 6 4.64. It shows that the system with interval time-varying delays has been effec-tively controlled using the designed fuzzy controller.
6. Conclusion
An approach has been proposed for stability analysis and controller design of T–S fuzzy control systems with intervaltime-varying delays. By employing two coupling integral inequalities to deal with some integral items and constructingan appropriate Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional including the interval delay characteristic, some delay-range-dependent cri-teria have been derived for stability analysis and controller design, respectively. Because neither model transformation norfree weighting matrices have been employed to deal with integral terms in the derivation of our stability criteria, the resultsobtained in this paper are naturally less conservative and more computationally efficient than those derived from someexisting free weighting methods. Moreover, by solving a constrained convex optimization problem based on a standard conecomplementary algorithm, the maximum allowable upper delay bound and feedback controller gains can be obtained simul-taneously. Numerical examples have also been given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
