Processing the Controllability of Control Systems with Distinct Fractional Derivatives via Kalman Filter and Gramian Matrix

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the controllability conditions of linear control systems involving distinct local fractional derivatives. Sufficient conditions for controllability using Kalman rank conditions and the Gramian matrix are presented. We show that the controllability of the local fractional system can be determined by the invertibility of the Gramian matrix and the full rank of the Kalman matrix. We also show that the local fractional system involving distinct orders is controllable if and only if the Gramian matrix is invertible. Illustrative examples and an application are provided to demonstrate the validity of the theoretical findings.
