Observability is one property where the system’s initial states are determined based on the output of some observation system. In this paper, we investigate the observability of time-varying fractional dynamical systems. A state-transition matrix represents the solution of the time-varying fractional dynamical systems. The observability results of linear and nonlinear systems are obtained using the Gramian matrix technique and the Banach contraction mapping theorem respectively. The obtained theoretical results for the observability of the time-varying fractional dynamical systems are compared with those of the time-invariant fractional dynamical system (FDS). Several numerical examples are provided to validate the theoretical results.
