Abstract

This paper describes a hardware/software codesign strategy for fuzzy control systems implementation using FPGAs. The main contribution of the paper consists of a methodology for joint development of hardware and software components intended for rapid and verifiable design of a fuzzy control system. The design flow combines specific tools for fuzzy inference systems included in the XFuzzy environment, simulation and modelling tools from Matlab and FPGA synthesis, and implementation tools provided by Xilinx. The advantages of this proposal are described in section 4 as it is used for the control system development of an autonomous vehicle.
