Comparison of Fractional-Order and Integer-Order H-infinity Control of a Non-Collocated Two-Mass Oscillator
We consider the robust control of a two-mass oscillator with a dominant input delay. Our aim is to compare a fractional-order tuning approach including the partial compensation of non-minimum phase zeros with a classical H∞ loop-shaping design, since both these designs lead to a relatively high controller order. First of all a detailed physical model is derived and validated using measurement data. Based on the line arized model both controllers are designed to be comparable, i.e. they show a similar crossover frequency in the open loop and the final controller order is reduced to the same range for both designs. The major differences between both are the different methods how the feed-forw…
Fractional-Order Partial Cancellation of Integer-Order Poles and Zeros
The key idea of this contribution is the partial compensation of non-minimum phase zeros or unstable poles. Therefore the integer-order zero/pole is split into a product of fractional-order pseudo zeros/poles. The amplitude and phase response of these fractional-order terms is derived to include these compensators into the loop-shaping design. Such compensators can be generalized to conjugate complex zeros/poles, and also implicit fractional-order terms can be applied. In the case of the non-minimum phase zero, its compensation leads to a higher phase margin and a steeper open-loop amplitude response around the crossover frequency resulting in a reduced undershooting in the step-response, a…
