This paper deals with a fuzzy stabilization design problem for a class of semilinear parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) systems using mobile actuators and sensors. Initially, a Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy PDE model is employed to accurately represent the semilinear parabolic PDE system. Subsequently, based on the T–S fuzzy model, a stabilization scheme containing the fuzzy controllers and the guidance of mobile actuator/sensor pairs is proposed, where the spatial domain is decomposed into multiple subdomains according to the number of actuator/sensor pairs and each actuator/sensor pair is capable of moving within the respective subdomain. Then, by a Lyapunov direct technique, an integrated design of fuzzy controllers plus mobile actuator/sensor guidance laws is developed in the form of bilinear matrix inequalities (BMIs), such that the resulting closed-loop system is exponentially stable and the mobile actuator/sensor guidance can enhance the transient performance of the closed-loop system. Furthermore, an iterative algorithm based on linear matrix inequalities is proposed to solve the BMIs. Finally, two examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
