Avoidence Strategies for Fractional Order Systems with Caputo Derivative

Abstract

Abstract A control strategy is derived for fractional-order dynamic systems with Caputo derivative to guarantee collision-free trajectories for two agents. To guarantee that one agent keeps the state of the system out of a given set regardless of the other agent’s actions a Lyapunov-based approach is adopted. As a special case showing that the given approach to choosing proposed strategy is constructive for a fractional-order system with the Caputo derivative, a linear system as an example is discussed. Obtained results extend to the fractional order case the avoidance problem Leitman’s and Skowronski’s approach.
