Stabilization of Positive Systems With Time Delay via the Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Impulsive Control

In this study, the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy impulsive control problem is investigated for a class of nonlinear positive systems with time delay. The time delay under consideration is both in the continuous-time dynamics and at the impulsive instants, which can model practical systems more accurately. An impulse-time-dependent copositive Lyapunov function (IDCLF) is constructed, and the Razumikhin technique is adopted to develop conditions that ensure the globally exponential stability of T-S fuzzy positive systems with delayed impulses. The size constraint between the impulse delay and the bound of impulsive intervals is removed. A T-S fuzzy impulsive controller is designed in terms of the solutions to certain vector inequalities that are readily solvable. Numerical examples and a practical example of lipoprotein metabolism and potassium ion transfer model are given to demonstrate the effectiveness, advantages, and practicality of the proposed results.
