In all the developments, the implementation and evaluation of these filters are done using MATLAB software. However, MATLAB is very expensive even for a limited number of licenses. Hence, a major alternative and open-source software i.e., Scilab can be used for these numerical computations. Therefore, in this paper, the fractional-order filters (low, high, band and all-pass) are developed and analyzed using Scilab in terms of Bode, impulse and step responses. The simulation study shows that the fractional-order filters can be effectively implemented and analyzed using Scilab. © 2018 IEEE. %K Manufacture; MATLAB; Open systems; Robotics, Conventional filters; Design and analysis; Domain analysis; Fractional-order filters; Numerical computations; Oustaloup's Approximation; Scilab; Simulation studies, Open source software
