Adaptive interval type-2 fuzzy sliding mode control for unknown chaotic system

Abstract

In this paper, a novel adaptive interval type-2 fuzzy sliding mode control (AIT2FSMC) methodology is proposed based on the integration of sliding mode control and adaptive interval type-2 fuzzy control for chaotic system. The AIT2FSMC system is comprised of a fuzzy control design and a hitting control design. In the fuzzy control design, an interval type-2 fuzzy controller is designed to mimic a feedback linearization (FL) control law. In the hitting control design, a hitting controller is designed to compensate the approximation error between the FL control law and the interval type-2 fuzzy controller. The parameters of the interval type-2 fuzzy controller, as well as the uncertainty bound of the approximation error, are tuned adaptively. The adaptive laws are derived in the sense of Lyapunov stability theorem, thus the stability of the system can be guaranteed. The proposed control system compared to adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control (AFSMC). Simulation results show that the proposed control systems can achieve favorable performance and robust with respect to system uncertainties and external disturbances.
