This paper presents an adaptation of the Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) method within the fractional calculus context. This ADRC version is characterized by a single active cancellation of the lumped effects of all the unmodeled dynamics, external disturbances and parameter uncertainty associated with the linear model of commensurate fractional order. This methodology proposes suitable simplifications to fit the resulting system to one of appropriate commensurate fractional order.

Its applications include studies to control vehicular traffic lights, urban planning, market studies, and detection of abnormal behaviors. However, these tasks require the use of intelligent algorithms of high computational demand that need to be trained in the environment being studied.
