The singularity is an intrinsic property for various fractional order systems. This paper focuses on the time domain analysis of typical “non-proper” fractional order transfer functions, which plays the crucial role in the implementation, stability and control of fractional order systems. To this end, the fractional order system is converted into a weak singularity integro-differential equation, where the non-proper property can be clearly presented. A practical strategy is shown to find out the poles in the first Riemann plane, which is especially applicable to small commensurate order problems. The distributed order and order sensitivity problems are discussed as well. A number of examples are illustrated by using some reliable fractional order numerical methods.

This paper presents fractional-order Kalman filters using the fractional-order average derivative method for linear fractional-order systems involving process and measurement noises. By using the fractional-order average derivative method, a difference equation model is obtained by discretizing the investigated continuous-time fractional-order system, and the accuracy of state estimation is improved. Meanwhile, compared with the Tustin generating function, the fractional-order average derivative method proposed in this paper can reduce computation load and save calculation time. Two kinds of fractional-order Kalman filters are given, for the correlated and uncorrelated cases, in terms of the process and measurement noises for linear fractional-order systems, respectively. Finally, simulation results are illustrated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed Kalman filters using the fractional-order average derivative method.

The history of fractional calculus dates back to 1600s and it is almost as old as classical mathematics. Although many studies have been published on fractional-order control systems in recent years, there is still a lack of analytical solutions. The focus of this study is to obtain analytical solutions for fractional order transfer functions with a single fractional element and unity coefficient. Approximate inverse Laplace transformation, that is, time response of the basic transfer function, is obtained analytically for the fractional order transfer functions with single-fractional-element by curve fitting method. Obtained analytical equations are tabulated for some fractional orders of [Formula: see text]. Moreover, a single function depending on fractional order alpha has been introduced for the first time using a table for [Formula: see text]. By using this table, approximate inverse Laplace transform function is obtained in terms of any fractional order of [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. Obtained analytic equations offer accurate results in computing inverse Laplace transforms. The accuracy of the method is supported by numerical examples in this study. Also, the study sets the basis for the higher fractional-order systems that can be decomposed into a single (simpler) fractional order systems.

AbstractThe elementary fractional-order models are the extension of first and second order models which have been widely used in various engineering fields. Some important properties of commensurate or a few particular kinds of non-commensurate elementary fractional-order transfer functions have already been discussed in the existing studies. However, most of them are only available for one particular kind elementary fractional-order system. In this paper, the stability and resonance analysis of a general kind non-commensurate elementary fractional-order system is presented. The commensurate-order restriction is fully released. Firstly, based on Nyquist’s Theorem, the stability conditions are explored in details under different conditions, namely different combinations of pseudo-damping (ζ) factor values and order parameters. Then, resonance conditions are established in terms of frequency behaviors. At last, an example is given to show the stable and resonant regions of the studied systems.

The theory and applications of fractional calculus (FC) had a considerable progress during the last years. Dynamical systems and control are one of the most active areas, and several authors focused on the stability of fractional order systems. Nevertheless, due to the multitude of efforts in a short period of time, contributions are scattered along the literature, and it becomes difficult for researchers to have a complete and systematic picture of the present day knowledge. This paper is an attempt to overcome this situation by reviewing the state of the art and putting this topic in a systematic form. While the problem is formulated with rigour, from the mathematical point of view, the exposition intends to be easy to read by the applied researchers. Different types of systems are considered, namely, linear/nonlinear, positive, with delay, distributed, and continuous/discrete. Several possible routes of future progress that emerge are also tackled.

The growing interest shows the importance of the control of chaos in fractional-order systems in recent years. This paper investigates in the hybrid projective synchronization of two chaotic systems with fractional-order, which were derived from Euler equations of rigid body motion. Theoretical analyses of the proposed methods are validated by numerical simulation in the time domain. Moreover, the synchronization system is realized using electronic circuits with fractance in the frequency domain.

In this paper, nonlinearly coupled identical Chua's circuits, when driven by sinusoidal signal have been analyzed in the time-domain by using the steady-state analysis techniques of piecewise-linear dynamic systems. With such techniques, it has become possible to obtain analytical expressions for the transfer functions in terms of the circuit parameters. The proposed system under consideration has also been studied by analog simulations of the overall system on a hardware realization using off-the-shelf components as well as by a time-domain analysis of the synchronization error.

Abstract RIOTS is a Matlab toolbox capable of solving a very general form of integer order optimal control problems. In this paper, we present an approach for implementing Model Predictive Control (MPC) to control a general form of fractional order systems using RIOTS toolbox. This approach is based on time-response-invariant approximation of fractional order system with an integer order model to be used as the internal model in MPC. The implementation of this approach is demonstrated to control a coupled MIMO commensurate fractional order model. Moreover, the performance and its application process is compared to examples reported in the literature.
