This paper introduces a novel method for controlling a class of nonlinear non-affine systems with fractional-order dynamics, using an adaptive fuzzy technique. By incorporating a novel fractional update law in the design procedure, the controller can effectively suppress chaotic behaviour and smoothly track desired trajectories. The proposed method offers key advantages such as robustness against uncertainties, fast error convergence to the neighbourhood of zero, and satisfactory disturbance rejection performance. To demonstrate the capabilities of the proposed fractional controller, simulation results were conducted using Python on a fractional order Arneodo chaotic system. The results high... More >
