Project updates: November 2013

An update for the FOMCON toolbox has been released: version 0.41 beta. With this release we bring you an important bug fix which was causing problems when simulating fractional-order controllers with $\lambda=\mu=1$. This was due to incorrect calls to toproper() function which are now corrected. In addition, several new features have been implemented. The most […]

Tutorial: Fractional-order PID Controller Design for a System with Input-output Delay

In this tutorial, we shall illustrate the use of the FOMCON toolbox in connection with the problem of designing a controller for a system with a significant input-output delay. For this purpose, a fractional-order first-order plus dead time (FO FOPDT) system is considered. We treat the continuous-time case.
