A FRACTIONAL ORDER UNIVERSAL HIGH GAIN ADAPTIVE STABILIZER

Abstract

In this paper, a fractional order universal high gain adaptive stabilizer is proposed which guarantees the Lp stability of fractional order multiple–input and multiple–output (MIMO) systems with finite control effort. The boundedness of the control gain for the fractional order universal adaptive strategy is discussed for fractional order MIMO systems, and an upper bound of the control gain is presented for fractional order single-input and single-output (SISO) systems. Some advantages of the discussed fractional order universal adaptive stabilizer are demonstrated in numerical simulations, such as the overshoots of system outputs can be efficiently reduced by decreasing the fractional order of the universal adaptive stabilizer without significantly increasing the system gains.
