Abstract

This paper proposes a new method for tuning the parameters of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) fractional-order PID (FOPID) controller. The aim of the proposed method is to calculate the parameters of this controller such that the rise time and steady-state errors of the feedback system are minimized without violating the predetermined stability margins. Mathematically, this problem is formulated as maximizing the spectral norm of the open-loop transfer matrix at zero frequency subject to a constraint on the H-norm of the sensitivity function. This problem is nonlinear in parameters of the MIMO FOPID, which can be solved using the iterative algorithm developed in this paper based on non-smooth H synthesis.
