TITLE

A Microcontroller Implementation of Fractional Order Controller

ABSTRACT

The idea of this paper is to implement a Fractional Order proportional integral PI on a real electronic system by using the STM32 microcontroller. This controller is founded on an extended version of Hermite-Biehler theorem to determine the complete set stabilizing. The STM32 keil starter kit based on a JTAG interface and the STM32 board was used to implement the proposed fractional controller. So, this controller is implemented using Keil development tools designed for ARM processor-based microcontroller devices and working with C/C++ langage. The performances and the efficiency of the developed strategy are illustrated with simulation results.
