Consistent approximation of fractional order operators


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Fractional order controllers become increasingly popular due to their versatility and superiority in various performance. However, the bottleneck in deploying these tools in practice is related to their analog or numerical implementation. Numerical approximations are usually employed in which the approximation of fractional differintegrator is the foundation. Generally, the following three identical equations always hold, i.e., $frac{1}{s^alpha}frac{1}{s^{1-alpha}} = frac{1}{s}$, $s^alpha frac{1}{s^alpha} = 1$ and $s^alpha s^{1-alpha} = s$. However, for the approximate models of fractional differintegrator $s^alpha$, $alphain(-1,0)cup(0,1)$, there usually exist some conflicts on the mentioned equations, which might enlarge the approximation error or even cause fallacies in multiple orders occasion. To overcome the conflicts, this brief develops a piecewise approximate model and provides two procedures for designing the model parameters. The comparison with several existing methods shows that the proposed methods do not only satisfy the equalities but also achieve high approximation accuracy. From this, it is believed that this work can serve for simulation and realization of fractional order controllers more friendly.
