Abstract
Abstract This contribution deals with the design of a fractional-order proportional-integral-derivative (FOPID) controller through reduce-order modeling for continuous interval systems. First, a higher order interval plant (HOIP) is considered. The reduced-order interval plant (ROIP) for considered HOIP is derived by multipoint Padé approximation integrated with Routh table. Then, FOPID controller is designed for ROIP to satisfy the phase margin and gain cross over frequency. Thus obtained FOPID controller is implemented on HOIP also to validate the performance of designed FOPID on HOIP. A single-input-single-output (SISO) test system is taken up to elaborate the entire process of controller design. The outcomes affirm the validity of the designed FOPID controller. The designed FOPID controller produced stable results retaining the phase margin and gain cross-over frequency when implemented on HOIP. The results further proved that FOPID controller is working efficiently for ROIP and HOIP.
