Stable Hybrid Fuzzy Controller-based Architecture for Robotic Telesurgery Systems
Robotic surgery and remotely controlled teleoperational systems are on the rise. However, serious limitations
arise on both the hardware and software side when traditional modeling and control approaches are taken.
These limitations include the incomplete modeling of robot dynamics, tool–tissue interaction, human–
machine interfaces and the communication channel. Furthermore, the inherent latency of long-distance signal
transmission may endanger the stability of a robot controller. All of these factors contribute to the very
limited deployment of real robotic telesurgery. This paper describes a stable hybrid fuzzy controller-based
architecture that is capable of handling the basic challenges. The aim is to establish high fidelity telepresence
systems for medical applications by easily handled modern control solution
New methods for the estimation of Takagi-Sugeno model based extended Kalman filter and its applications to optimal control for nonlinear systems
This paper describes new approaches to improve the local and global approximation (matching) and modeling capability of Takagi–Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model. The main aim is obtaining high function approximation accuracy and fast convergence. The main problem encountered is that T-S identification method cannot be applied when the membership functions are overlapped by pairs. This restricts the application of the T-S method because this type of membership function has been widely used during the last 2 decades in the stability, controller design of fuzzy systems and is popular in industrial control applications. The approach developed here can be considered as a generalized version of T-S identification method with optimized performance in approximating nonlinear functions. We propose a noniterative method through weighting of parameters approach and an iterative algorithm by applying the extended Kalman filter, based on the same idea of parameters’ weighting. We show that the Kalman filter is an effective tool in the identification of T-S fuzzy model. A fuzzy controller based linear quadratic regulator is proposed in order to show the effectiveness of the estimation method developed here in control applications. An illustrative example of an inverted pendulum is chosen to evaluate the robustness and remarkable performance of the proposed method locally and globally in comparison with the original T-S model. Simulation results indicate the potential, simplicity, and generality of the algorithm. An illustrative example is chosen to evaluate the robustness. In this paper, we prove that these algorithms converge very fast, thereby making them very practical to use
Fuzzy-logic-based control, filtering, and fault detection for networked systems: A Survey
This paper is concerned with the overview of the recent progress in fuzzy-logic-based filtering, control, and fault detection problems. First, the network technologies are introduced, the networked control systems are categorized from the aspects of fieldbuses and industrial Ethernets, the necessity of utilizing the fuzzy logic is justified, and the network-induced phenomena are discussed. Then, the fuzzy logic control strategies are reviewed in great detail. Special attention is given to the thorough examination on the latest results for fuzzy PID control, fuzzy adaptive control, and fuzzy tracking control problems. Furthermore, recent advances
on the fuzzy-logic-based filtering and fault detection problems are reviewed. Finally, conclusions are given and some possible future research directions are pointed out, for example, topics on two-dimensional networked systems, wireless networked control systems, Quality-of-Service (QoS) of networked systems, and fuzzy access control in open networked systems.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61329301,

A LOW-COST APPROACH TO DATA-DRIVEN FUZZY CONTROL OF SERVO SYSTEMS
Servo systems become more and more important in control systems applications in various fields as both separate control systems and actuators. Ensuring very good control system performance using few information on the servo system model (viewed as a controlled process) is a challenging task. Starting with authors’ results on data-driven model-free control, fuzzy control and the indirect model-free tuning of fuzzy controllers, this paper suggests a low-cost approach to the data-driven fuzzy control of servo systems. The data-driven fuzzy control approach consists of six steps: (i) open-loop data-driven system identification to produce the process model from input-output data expressed as the system step response, (ii) Proportional-Integral (PI) controller tuning using the Extended Symmetrical Optimum (ESO) method, (iii) PI controller parameters mapping onto parameters of Takagi-Sugeno PI-fuzzy controller in terms of the modal equivalence principle, (iv) closed-loop data-driven system identification, (v) PI controller tuning using the ESO method, (vi) PI controller parameters mapping onto parameters of Takagi-Sugeno PI-fuzzy controller. The steps (iv), (v) and (vi) are optional. The approach is applied to the position control of a nonlinear servo system. The experimental results obtained on laboratory equipment validate the approach
A CENTER MANIFOLD THEORY-BASED APPROACH TO THE STABILITY ANALYSIS OF STATE FEEDBACK TAKAGI-SUGENO-KANG FUZZY CONTROL SYSTEMS
The aim of this paper is to propose a stability analysis approach based on the application of the center manifold theory and applied to state feedback Takagi-Sugeno-Kang fuzzy control systems. The approach is built upon a similar approach developed for Mamdani fuzzy controllers. It starts with a linearized mathematical model of the process that is accepted to belong to the family of single input second-order nonlinear systems which are linear with respect to the control signal. In addition, smooth right-hand terms of the state-space equations that model the processes are assumed. The paper includes the validation of the approach by application to stable state feedback Takagi-Sugeno-Kang fuzzy control system for the position control of an electro-hydraulic servo-system
Designing the Model Predictive Control for Interval Type-2 Fuzzy T-S Systems Involving Unknown Time-Varying Delay in Both States and Input Vector
In this paper, the model predictive control is designed for an interval
type-2 Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) system with unknown time-varying delay in state and
input vectors. The time-varying delay is a weird phenomenon that is appeared in
almost all systems. It can make many problems and instability while the system
is working. In this paper, the time-varying delay is considered in both states
and input vectors and is the sensible difference between the proposed method
here and previous algorithms, besides, it is unknown but bounded. To solve the
problem, the Razumikhin approach is applied to the proposed method since it
includes a Lyapunov function with the original nonaugmented state space of
system models compared to Krasovskii formula. On the other hand, the Razumikhin
method act better and avoids the inherent complexity of the Krasovskii
specifically when large delays and disturbances are appeared. To stabilize
output results, the model predictive control (MPC) is designed for the system
and the considered system in this paper is interval type-2 (IT2) fuzzy T-S that
has better estimation of the dynamic model of the system. Here, online
optimization problems are solved by the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) which
reduce the burdens of the computation and online computational costs compared
to the offline and non-LMI approach. At the end, an example is illustrated for
the proposed approach
