When differentiation orders are assumed to be known, coefficients are estimated using the simplified refined instrumental variable method for continuous-time fractional models extended to the MISO case. For unknown differentiation orders, a two-stage optimization algorithm is proposed with the developed instrumental variable for coefficient estimation and a gradient-based algorithm for differentiation order estimation. A new definition of structured-commensurability (or S-commensurability) is introduced to better cope with differentiation order estimation. Three variants of the algorithm are then proposed: (i) first, all differentiation orders are set as integer multiples of a global S-commensurate order, (ii) then, the differentiation orders are set as integer multiples of a local S-commensurate orders (one S-commensurate order for each subsystem), (iii) finally, all differentiation orders are estimated by releasing the S-commensurability constraint. The first variant has the smallest number of parameters and is used as a good initial hit for the second variant which in turn is used as a good initial hit for the third variant. Such a progressive increase of the number of parameters allows better performance of the optimization algorithm evaluated by Monte Carlo simulation analysis. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd |

A tuning method for the Controller based on numerical optimization is presented to ensure the controlled system robustness toward gain variations and noise. This can be obtained by fulfilling five design requirements. The proposed design method is applied for the control of a Second Order Plus Time Delay resonant system. The effectiveness of the FCOC design method is checked through frequency and time domain analysis. © 2017 |

An online algorithm is proposed to determine some frequency characteristics using a selective filtering and to design a fractional PID controller based on the numerical optimization of the frequency-domain criterion. When the system parameters are time-varying, the controller is updated to keep the same desired performances. The main advantage of the proposed approach is that the controller design depends only on the measured input and output signals of the process. The effectiveness of the proposed method is assessed through a numerical example. © 2017 ISA |

Then, based on the numerical optimization of a frequency-domain criterion, the fractional controller is designed. If the proposed algorithm detects any changes in the process parameters, the controller is updated to keep the same performances.

Three new frequency-domain design methods are proposed. They achieve good robustness to the variation of some parameters by maintaining the open-loop phase quasi-constant in a pre-specified frequency band, i.e., maintaining the iso-damping property of the controlled system. The two first methods are extensions of the well-known Monje-Vinagre et al. method for uncertain systems. They ameliorate the numerical optimization algorithm by imposing the open-loop phase to be flat in a frequency band not only around a single frequency. The third method is an interval-based design approach that simplifies the algorithm by reducing the constraints number and offers a more large frequency band with an iso-damping property. Several numerical examples are presented to show the efficiency of each proposed method and discuss the obtained results. Also, an application to the liquid carbon monoxide level control is presented. © 2014, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht. |

A bias correction method is developed to deal with the bias problem in the continuous-time fractional closed-loop system identification. This method is based on the least squares estimator combined with the state variable filter approach. The basic idea is to eliminate the estimation bias by adding a correction term in the least squares estimates. The proposed algorithm is extended, using a nonlinear optimization algorithm, to estimate both coefficients and commensurate-order of the process. Numerical example shows the performances of the fractional order bias eliminated least squares method via Monte Carlo simulations. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. |
