“…To circumvent the unavailable time derivatives of MFs, the line-integral Lyapunov function [29,30] was presented, while the Lyapunov matrices had to include a special structure, and this strong restriction could also introduce some conservatism. To further reduce the conservatism, relaxed stability or stabilisation conditions for discrete-time T-S fuzzy system have been developed by applying generalised Lyapunov functions, such as the k-sample variation Lyapunov functions [31][32][33], homogenous polynomially parameter-dependent Lyapunov functions (HPPDLFs) or homogenous polynomially non-quadratic Lyapunov functions (HPNQLFs) [8,[34][35][36][37]. It has been shown that as the k-sample or the degrees of the related HPPD matrices increase, the conservatism of stability or stabilisation conditions are gradually reduced, but as a result, the computational burden will increase.…”
