Fractional-order calculus can obtain better results than the integer-order in control theory, so it has become a research hotspot in recent years. However, the structure of the irrational fractional-order system is complex, so its theoretical analysis and controller design are more difficult. In this paper, a method based on convolution integral is proposed to obtain the frequency domain response of the irrational model. Combined with the optimization algorithm, the model parameters are identified. Moreover, the rationalization of the irrational model is realized, which facilitates the analysis and application design of this kind models. Finally, two examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the method by identifying parameters and rationalization.
