Abstract: A new indirect adaptive switching fuzzy control method for fuzzy dynamical systems, based on Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) multiple models is proposed in this article. Motivated by the fact that indirect adaptive control techniques suffer from poor transient response, especially when the initialisation of the estimation model is highly inaccurate and the region of uncertainty for the plant parameters is very large, we present a fuzzy control method that utilises the advantages of multiple models strategy. The dynamical system is expressed using the T–S method in order to cope with the nonlinearities. T–S adaptive multiple models of the system to be controlled are constructed using different initial estimations for the parameters while one feedback linearisation controller corresponds to each model according to a specified reference model. The controller to be applied is determined at every time instant by the model which best approximates the plant using a switching rule with a suitable performance index. Lyapunov stability theory is used in order to obtain the adaptive law for the multiple models parameters, ensuring the asymptotic stability of the system while a modification in this law keeps the control input away from singularities. Also, by introducing the next best controller logic, we avoid possible infeasibilities in the control signal. Simulation results are presented, indicating the effectiveness and the advantages of the proposed method.
