Abstract

In this paper, fractional-order controller designs for integer first-order plus time delay systems are investigated. Based on Bode's ideal transfer function as a reference model, a new structure of the fractional-order controller is proposed. The internal model control principle is used to design the controllers. The effectiveness of the controllers is demonstrated through simulations and their efficiency is validated through experimentation on a heat flow platform.
