About the Book
This book offers a comprehensive and systematic exploration of control design and analysis for interval type-2 fuzzy systems under constrained communication networks. It introduces a range of innovative communication protocols, including dynamic/adaptive event-triggered, self-triggered, and static/dynamic scheduling protocols. Different methodologies for various communication protocols have been developed, considering the characteristics and information of membership functions in analysis and synthesis. Several techniques are employed to realize the desired performance, including state/output feedback fuzzy control, fuzzy sliding mode control, and fuzzy observer design. This proposed book will be the first book to focus on networked interval type-2 fuzzy systems comprehensively and systematically, including signal transmission, control design, and stability analysis. It serves as an invaluable resource for researchers and practitioners in the fields of control engineering, system sciences, and applied mathematics. It also provides valuable insights for senior undergraduates and graduates in these areas, introducing them to new concepts, models, and methodologies with practical significance in control engineering and signal processing.
