THE FRACTIONAL-ORDER CONTROLLERS: METHODS FOR THEIR SYNTHESIS AND APPLICATION

Ivo Petráš

   This paper deals with fractional-order controllers. We outline mathematical description of fractional controllers and methods of their synthesis and application. Synthesis method is a modified root locus method for fractional-order systems and fractional-order controllers. In the next section we describe how to apply the fractional controller on control systems.

Keywords: fractional-order controller, fractional-order controlled system, controller synthesis, control algorithm
