This book provides systematic guidance and theoretical basis for control theories and applications of fractional-order control systems. Control for Fractional-Order Systems and Fractional-Order Control: Theories and Applications describes the background, mathematical preliminaries, and recent progress with related illustrated examples, and proposes suggested future trends.The authors describe control schemes based on the adaptive backstepping technique and sampled...

As one of the core equipments and actuators, robotic technology has attracted much attention and has made great progress. However, a single robotic system is often unable to handle complex tasks due to limitations in sensors, microprocessors, actuators, and the ability to handle complex situations. With the development of distributed control and microprocessing technology, networked robotic systems have greatly expanded their perceptual, computational, and execution capabilities, with high...

This book delves deep into fractional-order control and fractional-order sliding mode techniques, addressing key challenges in the control design of linear motor systems and control for the deployment of space tethered systems. Innovative strategies such as adaptive fractional-order sliding mode control and fractional-order fuzzy sliding mode control schemes are devised to enhance system performance. Divided into three parts, it covers a brief view of fractional-order control strength in m...
