This paper examines the problem of membership-function-dependent controller design for a class of discrete-time T-S fuzzy systems. Based on the partition method of premise variable space, the original T-S fuzzy model is equivalently converted into a piecewise-fuzzy system. Then, by employing some staircase functions, the continuous membership functions are approximated by a series of discrete values via which the information of membership functions is brought into the stability analysis to reduce the design conservatism. With piecewise-Lyapunov functions, the approaches to the piecewise-fuzzy state feedback and observer-based output feedback controller design are proposed, respectively, in terms of linear matrix inequalities such that the closed-loop system is asymptotically stable with a prescribed <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">\mathcal {H}_{\infty }</tex-math></inline-formula> performance level. It is shown that the membership functions of the fuzzy model and fuzzy controllers are not necessarily the same, which allows more design flexibility. Finally, two illustrative examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the developed methods.
