The design of a fractional-order closed-loop model reference adaptive control (FOCMRAC) for anesthesia based on a fractional-order model (FOM) is proposed in the paper. This proposed model gets around many difficulties, namely, unknown parameters, lack of state measurement, inter and intra-patient variability, and variable time-delay, encountered in controller designs based on the PK/PD model commonly used for control of anesthesia, and allows to design a simple adaptive controller based on the Lyapunov analysis. Simulations illustrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed control.

This article presents a novel model reference adaptive control of fractional order nonlinear systems, which is a generalization of existing method for integer order systems. The formulating adaptive law is in terms of both tracking and prediction errors, whereas existing methods only depends on tracking error. The transient performance of the closed-loop systems with the proposed control strategy improves in the sense of generating smooth system output. The stability and tracking convergence of the resulting closed-loop system are analyzed via the indirect Lyapunov method. Meanwhile, the proposed controller is implemented by employing some fractional order tracking differentiator to generate the required fractional derivatives of a signal. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of our results.

Abstract This paper presents the results and analysis of an exhaustive simulation study where Switched Fractional Order Model Reference Adaptive Control (SFOMRAC) is used for first order plants, along with the analytical proof of boundedness and convergence of the scheme. The analysis is focused on the controlled system behavior through the integral of the timed squared control error (ITSE) and on the control energy though the integral of the squared control signal (ISI). Controller parameters such as fractional order, adaptive gain and switching time are varied along the simulation studies, as well as plant parameters and reference models. The results show that SFOMRAC controllers can be found for every plant and reference model used, such that both system behavior and control energy can be improved, compared to equivalent non switched fractional order and integer order control strategies.
