Abstract
In this manuscript a new method is introduced for solving fractional differential equations. The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. The main idea is to use fractional-order Legendre wavelets and operational matrix of fractional-order integration. First the fractional-order Legendre wavelets (FLWs) are presented. Then a family of piecewise functions is proposed, based on which the fractional order integration of FLWs are easy to calculate. The approach is used this operational matrix with the collocation points to reduce the under study problem to system of algebraic equations. Convergence of the fractional-order Legendre wavelet basis is demonstrate. Illustrative examples are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the technique.
