Fuzzy discretization and control for non-linear, multiple binary input systems
Carlos Vicente Ariño, Lluís Mas, Pedro Balaguer · Fuzzy Sets and Systems · 2023
The control of continuous-time linear systems with binary inputs cannot benefit from existing control design techniques because they are based on continuous control actions. In particular, optimal control problems with binary inputs lead to combinatorial optimization problems, which are difficult to solve. In this article we provide an exact discretization model of the binary continuous-time system that results in a non-linear multiple input controlled system. The non-linear model is then converted into a fuzzy discrete Takagi-Sugeno model, thus allowing the use of optimal control techniques based on LMI design. The modelling of the non-linear model by a discrete Takagi-Sugeno model is a complex process but it can be automatically performed as shown in the article and the code of the application examples.
