A SURVEY OF STABILITY OF FUZZY LOGIC CONTROL WITH AEROSPACE APPLICATIONS

Abstract During recent years considerable efforts have been devoted to guarantee the stability of fuzzy logic control (FLC). Several stability analysis methods have been established, and stable control designs have been introduced. This is important to pave the way for the use of FLC in applications were no risks should be run. Aerospace is a clear example of a field where control must be sure. This paper is motivated by an ESA research project on stability of FLC concerning, in particular, aerospace potential applications. The paper present a review of the research on FLC stability, both in time and frequency domains, including also several alternatives of stable control design methods. In addition, there is a section about FLC applications in aerospace.
