The notions of linear convex combination and controllability in the context of fractional-order systems are recalled. Then, the controllability property of such a linear combination of discrete-time, linear fractional systems is proven. Further, the reduction of an infinite problem of transition matrix derivation is reduced to a finite one, which greatly simplifies the numerical burden of the controllability issue. Examples of controllable and uncontrollable, single-input, linear systems are presented. The possibility of extension of the considerations to multi-input systems is shown.}, type={Article}, title={Controllability of linear convex combination of linear discrete-time fractional systems}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/124861/PDF-MASTER/2928_BPASTS_2022_70_5.pdf}, doi={10.24425/bpasts.2022.143102}, keywords={fractional order systems, controllability, linear convex combination}, }
