I. INTRODUCTION

T

HE filtering problem is to design an estimator to estimate the unknown state combination via output measurement, which guarantees the gain (from the external disturbance to the estimation error) less than a prescribed level [1]–[6]. In contrast with the well-known Kalman filter, one of filtering is that, it is not necesthe main advantages of sary to know exactly the statistical properties of the external disturbance, but only assumes the external disturbance to have filtering bounded energy. Some practical applications of in signal processing can be found from [7]–[9]. filtering and control On the other hand, the stochastic problems with system models expressed by Itô-type stochastic differential equations have become a popular research topic, and have gained extensive attention [10]–[15]. Most of the aforementioned works are limited to the linear stationary stochastic systems, while [14] investigated the same problem for a class of special nonlinear stochastic systems and [12] and [15] discontrol probcussed the linear and nonlinear stochastic lems. Unlike the deterministic case, the Hamilton–Jacobi inManuscript received March 2, 2005; revised July 28, 2005 and October 20, 2005.

filter is equality (HJI) associated with nonlinear stochastic a second-order (not first-order) nonlinear partial differential inequality due to the effect of the diffusion term, which makes the filtering problem more complex [16], [17]. In stochastic general, it is very difficult to solve the second-order nonlinear HJI. Recently, there have been many applications of fuzzy systems theory in various fields. In most of these applications, the fuzzy systems were thought of as universal approximators for any nonlinear systems. The Takagi and Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model [18] which has been proved to be a very good representation for a certain class of nonlinear dynamic systems was extensively studied in control systems and signal processing [19]–[23]. In this study, using Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model] fuzzy apfuzzy filtering design for a class of nonlinear proach, the stochastic systems can be given via solving linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) instead of a second-order Hamilton-Jacobi inequality. First, a T-S fuzzy model is proposed to approximate a class of nonlinear stochastic systems. Next, based on the T-S fuzzy filtering design for the nonlinear fuzzy model, the stochastic systems is characterized in terms of minimizing the attenuation level subject to some LMIs, which is also called eigenvalue problem (EVP) [24]. When the worst-case fuzzy disturbance is considered, a near minimum variance fuzzy filtering problem is also solved by minimizing the upper bound on the variance of the estimation error. The near minimum variance fuzzy filtering problem under the worst-case fuzzy disturbance is also characterized in terms of linear matrix inequality problem (LMIP), which can be efficiently solved by the LMI toolbox in Matlab [25]. Simulation examples are provided to illustrate the design procedure and expected performance. settings for nonlinear The paper is organized as follows: stochastic systems are given in Section II. In Section III, fuzzy filtering design for a class of nonlinear stochastic systems is introduced, while near minimum variance fuzzy filtering design under the worst-case fuzzy disturbance is presented in Section IV.

A fuzzy dynamic model has been proposed by Takagi and Sugeno [18] to represent locally linear input–output relations for nonlinear systems. This fuzzy dynamic model is described by fuzzy IF–THEN rules and will be employed here to deal with the filtering design problem for a class of nonlinear stochastic systems governed by Itô-type stochastic differential equations. The th rule of the fuzzy model for the nonlinear stochastic systems is proposed as the following form: Rule i If Then
