Optimization Based Design

Abstract This paper presents a two-step optimization-based design method for iterative learning control and applies it onto the quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) trajectory tracking problem. Iterative learning control aims to improve the tracking performance through learning from errors over iterations in repetitively operated systems. The tracking errors from previous iterations are injected into a learning filter and a robust filter to generate the learning signal. The design of the two filters usually involves nontrivial tuning work. This paper presents a new two-optimization design method for the iterative learning control, which is easy to obtain and implement. In particular, the learning filter design problem is transferred into a feedback controller design problem for a purposely constructed system, which is solved based on H-infinity optimal control theory thereafter. The robust filter is then obtained by solving an additional optimization to guarantee the learning convergence. Through the proposed design method, the learning performance is optimized and the system's stability is guaranteed. The proposed two-step optimization-based design method and the regarding iterative learning control algorithm are validated by both numerical and experimental studies.

Duration Task

Many physical systems make repeated executions of the same finite time duration task. One example is a robot in a factory or warehouse whose task is to collect an object in sequence from a location, transfer it over a finite duration, place it at a specified location or on a moving conveyor and then return for the next one and so on. Iterative learning control was especially developed for systems with this mode of operation and this paper gives an overview of this control design method using relatively recent relevant applications in wind turbines, free-electron lasers and health care, as exemplars to demonstrate its applicability.

Uncertain Linear Systems

To deal with an iterative learning control (ILC) system with plant uncertainty, a set of new terms related with robust convergence is first defined. This paper proposes a sufficient condition for not only robust convergence but also robust stability of ILC for uncertain linear systems, including plant uncertainty. Thus, to find a new condition unrelated to the uncertainty, we first separate it into a known part and uncertainty one using linear fractional transformations (LFTs). Then, robust convergence and robust stability of an ILC system is determined by structured singular value (μ) of only the known part. Based on the novel condition, a learning controller and a feedback controller are developed at the same time to ensure robust convergence and robust stability of the ILC system under plant uncertainty. Lastly, the feasibility of the proposed convergence condition and design method are confirmed through computer simulation on an one-link flexible arm.

Form Representation

Abstract Iterative learning control (ILC) has been growing in applicability, along with growth in theory for classes of linear and nonlinear systems, and this study extends the theory of ILC to hybrid systems. A lifted form representation of hybrid systems with input-output dependent switching rules is developed, and the proposed lifted form representation is modeled as a switched system with arbitrary/unconstrained switching rules in the trial domain for control design. The causality of hybrid systems in the time domain results in the (lower) triangular structure of switched systems in the trial domain, the triangular structure enabling systematic and efficient control design. A unique aspect of the control design method developed for ILC of hybrid systems in this study is that a solution to the required set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) is guaranteed to exist under mild assumptions, which is in contrast to many other studies proposing LMI based solutions in controls literature. The proposed method is validated numerically for a motion control application, and robust and monotonic convergence of the tracking error to zero is demonstrated.

Straightforward Manner

This paper considers the design of linear iterative learning control algorithms using the discrete Fourier transform of the measured impulse response of the system or plant under consideration. It is shown that this approach leads to a transparent design method whose performance is then experimentally benchmarked on an electromechanical system. The extension of this approach to the case when there is uncertainty associated with the systems under consideration is also addressed in both algorithm development and experimental benchmarking terms. The robustness results here have the applications oriented benefit of allowing the designer to manipulate the convergence and robustness properties of the algorithm in a straightforward manner.
