Abstract

The methods currently available for designing a linear quadratic regulator for fractional-order systems are either based on sufficient-type conditions for the optimality of functionals or generate very complicated analytical solutions even for simple systems. It follows that the use of such methods is limited to very simple problems. The present paper proposes a practical method for designing a linear quadratic regulator (assuming linear state feedback), Kalman filter, and linear quadratic Gaussian regulator/controller for commensurate fractional-order systems (in Caputo sense). For this purpose, considering the fact that in dealing with fractional-order systems the cost function of linear quadratic regulator has only one extremum, the optimal state feedback gains of linear quadratic regulator and the gains of the Kalman filter are calculated using a gradient-based numerical optimization algorithm. Various fractional-order linear quadratic regulator and Kalman filter design problems are solved using the proposed approach. Specifically, a linear quadratic Gaussian controller capable of tracking step command is designed for a commensurate fractional-order system which is non-minimum phase and unstable and has seven (pseudo) states.
