Characterization of the Ranking Indices of Triangular Fuzzy Numbers

We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a ranking index defined on the set of triangular fuzzy numbers as a linear combination of its components to rank effectively. Then, based on this result, we characterize the class of ranking indices which generates orderings on triangular fuzzy numbers satisfying the basic requirements by Wang and Kerre in a slightly modified form.
