Resumen
The focus of present research endeavor was to design a robust fractional-order proportional-integral-derivative (FOPID) controller with specified phase margin (PM) and gain cross over frequency (??????

) through the reduced-order model for continuous interval systems. Currently, this investigation is two-fold: In the first part, a modified Routh approximation technique along with the matching Markov parameters (MPs) and time moments (TMs) are utilized to derive a stable reduced-order continuous interval plant (ROCIP) for a stable high-order continuous interval plant (HOCIP). Whereas in the second part, the FOPID controller is designed for ROCIP by considering PM and ??????

as the performance criteria. The FOPID controller parameters are tuned based on the frequency domain specifications using an advanced sine-cosine algorithm (SCA). SCA algorithm is used due to being simple in implementation and effective in performance. The proposed SCA-based FOPID controller is found to be robust and efficient. Thus, the designed FOPID controller is applied to HOCIP. The proposed controller design technique is elaborated by considering a single-input-single-output (SISO) test case. Validity and efficacy of the proposed technique is established based on the simulation results obtained. In addition, the designed FOPID controller retains the desired PM and ??????
