ABSTRACT
In this paper, we present a fractional sliding mode controller based on a robust observer for fractional systems with bounded disturbances. This controller is introduced to achieve closed-loop Mittag–Leffler stability for uncertain fractional systems; meanwhile, the robust
observer is designed such that a
stability is obtained via quadratic Lyapunov functions and the tuning is achieved with linear matrix inequality approach. The performance and stability of the proposed controller are analysed and demonstrated through a generalised
-differentiator. Finally, to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach a comparative analysis against the fractional Super-Twisting is carried out.
