New Results on Stabilization of Fractional‐Order Nonlinear Systems via an LMI Approach

This paper considers the systematic design of robust stabilizing state feedback controllers for fractional‐order nonlinear systems. By using the Lyapunov direct method and a recent result on the Caputo fractional derivative of a quadratic function, stabilizability conditions expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities are derived. The controllers can then be derived by using existing computationally effective convex algorithms. Two numerical examples with simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of our results.     

Fractional‐Order Dynamic Output Feedback Sliding Mode Control Design for Robust Stabilization of Uncertain Fractional‐Order Nonlinear Systems

A robust fractional‐order dynamic output feedback sliding mode control (DOF‐SMC) technique is introduced in this paper for uncertain fractional‐order nonlinear systems. The control law consists of two parts: a linear part and a nonlinear part. The former is generated by the fractional‐order dynamics of the controller and the latter is related to the switching control component. The proposed DOF‐SMC ensures the asymptotical stability of the fractional‐order closed‐loop system whilst it is guaranteed that the system states hit the switching manifold in finite time. Finally, numerical simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

State Feedback Control for a Class of Fractional Order Nonlinear Systems

Using the Lyapunov function method, this paper investigates the design of state feedback stabilization controllers for fractional order nonlinear systems in triangular form, and presents a number of new results. First, some new properties of Caputo fractional derivative are presented, and a sufficient condition of asymptotical stability for fractional order nonlinear systems is obtained based on the new properties. Then, by introducing appropriate transformations of coordinates, the problem of controller design is converted into the problem of finding some parameters, which can be certainly obtained by solving the Lyapunov equation and relevant matrix inequalities. Finally, based on the Lyapunov function method, state feedback stabilization controllers making the closed-loop system asymptotically stable are explicitly constructed. A simulation example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design procedure.      

Stabilization of Uncertain Multi‐Order Fractional Systems Based on the Extended State Observer

The extended state observer (ESO) based controller has been used successfully with integer‐order systems involving large uncertainties. In this paper, the robust control of uncertain multi‐order fractional‐order (FO) systems based on ESO is investigated. First, we transform the multi‐order FO system into an equivalent system in the form of a same‐order state‐space equation. Then, the ESO for the new system is established for estimating both the state and the total disturbance. Sufficient conditions for bounded‐input and bounded‐output stability are derived, and the asymptotic stability of the closed loop system is analyzed, based on whether the states are available or not. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the validity and feasibility of the proposed methodology.

An Exploration on Adaptive Iterative Learning Control for a Class of Commensurate High-order Uncertain Nonlinear Fractional Order Systems

This paper explores the adaptive iterative learning control method in the control of fractional order systems for the first time. An adaptive iterative learning control (AILC) scheme is presented for a class of commensurate high-order uncertain nonlinear fractional order systems in the presence of disturbance. To facilitate the controller design, a sliding mode surface of tracking errors is designed by using sufficient conditions of linear fractional order systems. To relax the assumption of the identical initial condition in iterative learning control (ILC), a new boundary layer function is proposed by employing Mittag-Leffler function. The uncertainty in the system is compensated for by utilizing radial basis function neural network. Fractional order differential type updating laws and difference type learning law are designed to estimate unknown constant parameters and time-varying parameter, respectively. The hyperbolic tangent function and a convergent series sequence are used to design robust control term for neural network approximation error and bounded disturbance, simultaneously guaranteeing the learning convergence along iteration. The system output is proved to converge to a small neighborhood of the desired trajectory by constructing Lyapnov-like composite energy function (CEF) containing new integral type Lyapunov function, while keeping all the closed-loop signals bounded. Finally, a simulation example is presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Mittag‐Leffler stabilization for an unstable time‐fractional anomalous diffusion equation with boundary control matched disturbance

This paper addresses the Mittag‐Leffler stabilization for an unstable time‐fractional anomalous diffusion equation with boundary control subject to the control matched disturbance. The active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) approach is adopted for developing the control law. A state‐feedback scheme is designed to estimate the disturbance by constructing two auxiliary systems: One is to separate the disturbance from the original system to a Mittag‐Leffler stable system and the other is to estimate the disturbance finally. The proposed control law compensates the disturbance using its estimation and stabilizes system asymptotically. The closed‐loop system is shown to be Mittag‐Leffler stable and the constructed auxiliary systems in the closed loop are proved to be bounded. This is the first time for ADRC to be applied to a system described by the fractional partial differential system without using the high gain.     

Robust Finite‐Time Stability Control of a Class of High‐Order Uncertain Nonlinear Systems

In this study, a novel robust finite‐time stability controller is proposed for a class of high‐order uncertain nonlinear systems. It uses the dynamic surface control (DSC) approach to simplify the traditional backstepping design for high‐order nonlinear systems, thus avoiding the “explosion of terms”. The finite‐time stability of the closed‐loop system is guaranteed to have high performance, such as fast transient and strong robustness to dynamic uncertainties, and the tracking error is made arbitrarily small. Simulation results of two examples indicate that the proposed controller is effective.

This paper describes a variable structure control for fractional‐order systems with delay in both the input and state variables. The proposed method includes a fractional‐order state predictor to eliminate the input delay. The resulting state‐delay system is controlled through a sliding mode approach where the controller uses a sliding surface defined by fractional order integral. Then, the proposed control law ensures that the state trajectories reach the sliding surface in finite time. Based on recent results of Lyapunov stability theory for fractional‐order systems, the stability of the closed loop is studied. Finally, an illustrative example is given to show the interest of the proposed approach.

Output Feedback Stabilization of a Class of Uncertain Nonaffine Nonlinear Systems

In this paper, output feedback control is presented for a general class of uncertain nonaffine nonlinear systems, that does not rely on state estimation. Under the condition that only the system output is available for feedback, a dynamic linear filter is built to estimate unknown nonlinearities, and an output feedback controller is developed to stabilize the systems by utilizing the estimation to compensate for the unknown nonlinearities. One important feature of the proposed control is that the controller is developed under mild conditions with simple control algorithms, which is of great significance in engineering practice. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the control approach.     

Control and Synchronization Of A Class Of Uncertain Fractional Order Chaotic Systems Via Adaptive Backstepping Control

This paper presents the stabilization and synchronization problem of a class of fractional order chaotic systems with unknown parameters. A systematic step by step approach is explained to derive control results using an adaptive backstepping strategy. The analytically obtained control structure, derived by blending a systematic backstepping procedure with Mittag‐Leffler stability results, helps in obtaining the stability of a strict feedback‐like class of uncertain fractional order chaotic systems. The results are further extended to achieve synchronization of these systems in master–slave configuration. Thereafter, the methodology has been applied to two example systems, that is, chaotic Chua's circuit and Genesio‐Tesi system, which belong to addressed class, in order to show the application of results. Numerical simulation given at the end confirms the efficacy of the scheme presented here.
