Abstract

Fractional calculus has gained increasing attention from researchers because of providing accurate modelling and flexible controller design in control applications. More research to design controllers for Fractional Order Two-Input Two-Output (FOTITO) systems, which inherently have certain difficulties, is needed when the studies about these control applications are considered. In this study, Coefficient Diagram Method (CDM) based decentralized controllers are designed for FOTITO systems. For this, integer order approximate models of FOTITO systems are obtained and decoupled into two subsystems by using simplified and inverted decoupling configurations. Obtained high-order approximate subsystem transfer functions are reduced by a model reduction method to facilitate CDM-based decentralized controller design. Then, CDM-based decentralized controllers are designed for each subsystem, which enables to obtain the controllers of the FOTITO system. Simulation results for two different FOTITO systems, one of which is a time delay fractional order system, are demonstrated that the proposed approach exhibits successful performance.
