摘要

A design method of low-dimensional disturbance rejection fuzzy control (DRFC) via multiple observers is proposed for a class of nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) systems, where the disturbance is modeled by an exosystem of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and enters into the PDE system through the control channel. In the proposed scheme, the modal decomposition technique is initially applied to the PDE system to derive a slowsubsystem of low-dimensional nonlinear ODEs, which accurately captures the dominant dynamics of the PDE system. The resulting nonlinear slow subsystem is subsequently represented by a Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model. From the T-S fuzzy model and the exosystem, a fuzzy slow mode observer and a fuzzy disturbance observer are constructed to estimate the slow mode and the disturbance, respectively. Furthermore, a nonlinear observation spillover observer is proposed to compensate the effect of observation spillover. Then, based on these observers, a low-dimensional DRFC design is developed in terms of linear matrix inequalities to guarantee the exponential stability of the closed-loop PDE system in the presence of the disturbance. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed design method is demonstrated on the control of one-dimensional Burgers-KPP-Fisher diffusion-reaction system and the temperature profile of a catalytic rod.
