In recent years, fractional order systems and fractional order control have increasingly attracted the attention of researchers in various fields of science and engineering. On the other hand, numerous control approaches have been extended in order to be utilized in fractional order systems. Despite this fact, few research studies have been devoted to generalizing integer order observers to fractional order ones. Since the applications of fractional order systems are increasing, developing fractional order observers seems to be essential. In this paper the problem of non-fragile adaptive sliding mode observer design for a class of fractional-order nonlinear systems with time delay is addressed. First, the states of the fractional-order pseudo-linear time-delay system with matched nonlinearity are estimated employing the sliding mode control method. Then the state estimation problem of fractional order systems with mismatched nonlinearity has been investigated. The asymptotic stability of the estimation error dynamics is proven by employing the Lyapunov stability analysis method for fractional order systems. The sufficient stability conditions are derived in the form of Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs). Eventually, the effective performance of the proposed approach in this paper has been corroborated through simulation of a numerical example and also a case study of a fractional order economic system.

The problem of consensus in fractional order single-integrator multi-agent systems has been studied in this paper. The effect of memory is considered using the Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative in the dynamics of the agents. In order to achieve convergence among the agents, a fractional order control protocol based on the error signal between neighboring agents is proposed. Using Lyapunov's stability theorem, a Lyapunov function is introduced that shows that the agents converge over a specified settling time and the upper bound of the settling time is obtained. The merit of the proposed bound for the settling time is that it is independent of the initial conditions. Finally, some simulations are provided to confirm the introduced method.
