This paper presents integer and linear time-invariant fractional order (FO) models of a closed-loop electric individual-wheel drive implemented on an autonomous platform. Two discrete-time FO models are tested: non-commensurate and commensurate. A classical model described by the second-order linear difference equation is used as the reference. According to the sum of the squared error criterion (SSE), we compare a two-parameter integer order model with four-parameter non-commensurate and three-parameter commensurate FO descriptions. The computer simulation results are compared with the measured velocity of a real autonomous platform powered by a closed-loop electric individual-wheel drive.

AbstractThis is a continuation (Part II) of our previous paper [19]. In this paper we present a simple method of the fractional-order value calculation of the fractional-order discrete integration element. We assume that the input and output signals are known. The linear time-invariant fractional-order difference equation is reduced to the polynomial in a variable ν with coefficients depending on the measured input and output signal values. One should solve linear algebraic equation or find roots of a polynomial. This simple mathematical problem complicates when the measured output signal contains a noise. Then, the polynomial roots are unsettled because they are very sensitive to coefficients variability. In the paper we show that the discrete integrator fractional-order is very stiff due to the degree of the polynomial. The minimal number of samples guaranteeing the correct order is evaluated. The investigations are supported by a numerical example.

Adaptive and non-adaptive minimal realization (MR) fractional order observers (FOO) for linear time-invariant systems (LTIS) of a possibly different derivation order (mixed order observers, MOO) are studied in this paper. Conditions on the convergence and robustness are provided using a general framework which allows observing systems defined with any type of fractional order derivative (FOD). A qualitative discussion is presented to show that the derivation orders of the observer structure and for the parameter adjustment are relevant degrees of freedom for performance optimization. A control problem is developed to illustrate the application of the proposed observers.

AbstractThis paper deals with fractional-order linear time invariant swarm systems. Necessary and sufficient conditions for asymptotic swarm stability of these systems are presented. Also, based on a time response analysis the speed of convergence in an asymptotically swarm stable fractional-order linear time invariant swarm system is investigated and compared with that of its integer-order counterpart. Numerical simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the paper results.

In this paper, linear time-invariant square systems are considered. A procedure to design infinitely many proportional–integral–derivative controllers, all of them assigning closed-loop poles (or closed-loop eigenvalues), at desired locations fixed in the open left half plane of the complex plane is presented. The formulation accommodates partial pole placement features. The state-space realization of the linear system incorporated with a proportional–integral–derivative controller boils down to the generalized eigenvalue problem. The generalized eigenvalue-eigenvector constraint is transformed into a system of underdetermined linear homogenous set of equations whose unknowns include proportional–integral–derivative parameters. Hence, the proportional–integral–derivative solution sets are infinitely many for the chosen closed-loop eigenvalues in the eigenvalue-eigenvector constraint. The solution set is also useful to reduce the tracking errors and improve the performance. Three examples are illustrated.
