More Information
  • This paper aims to solve the robust iterative learning control (ILC) problems for nonlinear time-varying systems in the presence of nonrepetitive uncertainties. A new optimization-based method is proposed to design and analyze adaptive ILC, for which robust convergence analysis via a contraction mapping approach is realized by leveraging properties of substochastic matrices. It is shown that robust tracking tasks can be realized for optimization-based adaptive ILC, where the boundedness of system trajectories and estimated parameters can be ensured, regardless of unknown time-varying nonlinearities and nonrepetitive uncertainties. Two simulation tests, especially implemented for an injection molding process, demonstrate the effectiveness of our robust optimization-based ILC results.

    Highlights

    • We address the robust iterative learning control (ILC) problem for nonlinear time-varying systems in the presence of nonrepetitive uncertainties. We propose a new optimization-based design method for adaptive ILC. This new design method makes it feasible to directly apply the contraction mapping-based analysis approach of ILC to develop the boundedness of estimated parameters that are used in our adaptive updating law for the estimation of unknown time-varying nonlinearities.
    • We introduce a new robust convergence analysis method for optimization-based adaptive ILC by implementing a double-dynamics analysis approach and resorting to the use of the properties of the substochastic matrices. This makes it possible to not only accomplish the robust convergence analysis of optimization-based adaptive ILC, but also guarantee the boundedness of all the system trajectories.
    • Our design methods and analysis results of optimization-based adaptive ILC can effectively work, regardless of the presence of nonrepetitive uncertainties. This particularly helps to overcome the drawbacks of those methods and results for optimization-based adaptive ILC established through applying the eigenvalue-based contraction mapping approach.
