The purpose of this paper is to make a contribution for solving one of the major drawbacks for using fractional controllers: the controller implementation. In digital form, this is usually done by using a truncated version of the Grundwald-Letnikov formula for fractional derivative. In this work, experimental results are given comparing this method for digital implementation of a fractional PD ...

The main objective of this paper is to design a fractional-order PID speed controller for vector-controlled induction motors, where possible parameter variations and load disturbances are considered. The required parameters of the fractional-order PID controller can be obtained by utilizing the Matlab optimization toolbox, in which phase margin, gain-crossover frequency, high-frequency noise re...

We propose a fractional-order controller to stabilize unstable fractional-order open-loop systems with interval uncertainty whereas one does not need to change the poles of the closed-loop system in the proposed method. For this, we will use the robust stability theory of Fractional-Order Linear Time Invariant FO-LTI systems. To determine the control parameters, one needs only a little knowledg...

This paper presents a novel tuning algorithm for fractional order IMC controllers for time delay processes. The tuning algorithm is based on computing the equivalent controller of the IMC structure and imposing frequency domain specifications for the resulting open loop system. A second order time delay process is used as a case study. An integer order IMC controller is designed, as well as a f...
