The decentralized adaptive fuzzy control problem for switched nonstrict-feedback nonlinear large-scale systems is investigated in this paper. Fuzzy logic systems are adopted to identify the unknown nonlinear system functions and unknown interconnected nonlinearities. A linear state observer is designed to solve the problem of unmeasured states, and a new observer-based output-feedback decentralized control scheme is developed based on adaptive fuzzy control principle and bacsktepping design technique. The proposed control strategy not only solves the control design problem of more general form nonlinear switched systems in nonstrict-feedback form, but also does not require the switched signals to meet the restriction of average dwell time. The stability of fuzzy control systems under arbitrary switchings is proven based on the common Lyapunov function method. Simulation results of numerical examples are presented to further demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
