State feedback controller design of fractional ordinary differential equations coupled with a fractional reaction–advection–diffusion equation with delay

Abstract

The boundary control problem of fractional ordinary differential equations coupled with a time fractional reaction–advection–diffusion equation with delay is studied in this paper. To ensure the asymptotic stability of the system we studied, a state feedback boundary controller is proposed. By backstepping method, we transform the fractional coupled system into a chosen target system under a controller. Furthermore, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of the state solution of the considered system. A Lyapunov functional is constructed to show the asymptotic stability of the fractional coupled system by the special fractional Halanay inequality. The asymptotic stability criterion of the fractional coupled system is described by Linear Matrix Inequalities (LIMs). Which can be easily solved and verified. Finally, the applicability of our theoretical results is showed by a numerical simulation.
