It has been known that, real right half plane (RHP) zeros imply serious limitations on the performance of nonminimum phase systems. Feedback cannot remove these limitations, mainly because RHP zeros cannot be cancelled by unstable poles of the controller since such a cancellation leads to internal instability. Hence, the idea of using fractional order systems in partial cancellation of the RHP zeros without leading to internal instability is studied. In this paper, the partial cancellation of RHP zeros with RHP poles is proposed using the fractional calculus approach. It is shown that undershoot and settling time of the compensated system is improved. Using suitable optimum criterion, it is shown that the performance of closed loop system can be relatively improved. Simulation results are used to show the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.
