Relaxed Stability and Non-weighted $$L_2$$ -Gain Analysis for Asynchronously Switched Polynomial Fuzzy Systems

This paper concerns the stability and non-weighted \(L_2\)-gain analysis issues for the switched systems subject to asynchronous switching and external disturbance. By taking full advantage of the admissible edge-dependent average dwell time (AED-ADT) switching signal, a stability criterion of asynchronously switched systems is proposed to achieve a lower non-weighted \(L_2\)-gain index than the existing results. Furthermore, the dynamics of switched systems are described by using the polynomial fuzzy model instead of the T-S fuzzy model, which can represent a wider range of nonlinear plants. For such asynchronously switched polynomial fuzzy systems, the relaxed conditions are derived through the membership-function-dependent (MFD) technique and novel high-order multiple Lyapunov functions (MLFs) construction method to guarantee less conservative stability and non-weighted \(L_2\)-gain results. Finally, the superiority of the proposed approaches are verified through two simulation examples.
