一种新的非线性离散时间系统迭代学习控制的前馈－反馈机制

This paper presents a new feedback-feedforward configuration for the iterative learning control (ILC) design withfeedback, which consists of a feedback and a feedforward component. The feedback integral controller stabilizes the system,and takes the dominant role during the operation, and the feed-forward ILC compensates for the repeatable nonlinear/unknowntime-varying dynamics and disturbances, thereby enhancing the performance achieved by feedback control alone. As the mostfavorable point of this control strategy, the feedforward ILC and the feedback control can work either independently or jointlywithout making efforts to recongurate or retune the feedforward/feedback gains. With rigorous analysis, the proposedlearning control scheme guarantees the asymptotic convergences along the iteration axis.     

时变机器人系统的重复学习控制：一种混合学习方案(英文)

Repetitive learning control is presented for finite- time-trajectory tracking of uncertain time-varying robotic sys- tems.A hybrid learning scheme is given to cope with the con- stant and time-varying unknowns in system dynamics,where the time functions are learned in an iterative learning way,without the aid of Taylor expression,while the conventional differential learning method is suggested for estimating the constant ones. It is distinct that the presented repetitive learning control avoids the requirement for initial repositioning at the beginning of each cycle,and the time-varying unknowns are not necessary to be periodic.It is shown that with the adoption of hybrid learning, the boundedness of state variables of the closed-loop system is guaranteed and the tracking error is ensured to converge to zero as iteration increases.The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through numerical simulation.     

迭代学习控制在线性时变系统终端控制问题中的应用研究

An iterative learning control algorithm based on shifted Legendre orthogonal polynomials is proposed to address the terminal control problem of linear time-varying systems. First, the method parameterizes a linear time-varying system by using shifted Legendre polynomials approximation. Then, an approximated model for the linear time-varying system is deduced by employing the orthogonality relations and boundary values of shifted Legendre polynomials. Based on the model, the shifted Legendre polynomials coefficients of control function are iteratively adjusted by an optimal iterative learning law derived. The algorithm presented can avoid solving the state transfer matrix of linear time-varying systems. Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Robust Optimization-Based Iterative Learning Control for Nonlinear Systems With Nonrepetitive Uncertainties

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.

This paper proposes a new adaptive iterative learning control approach for a class of nonlinearly parameterized systems with unknown time-varying delay and unknown control direction.By employing the parameter separation technique and signal replacement mechanism,the approach can overcome unknown time-varying parameters and unknown time-varying delay of the nonlinear systems.By incorporating a Nussbaum-type function,the proposed approach can deal with the unknown control direction of the nonlinear systems.Based on a Lyapunov-Krasovskii-like composite energy function,the convergence of tracking error sequence is achieved in the iteration domain.Finally,two simulation examples are provided to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed control method.     

离散线性时滞系统的次优控制:逐次逼近法

A successive approximation approach for designing optimal controllers is presented for discrete linear time-delay systems with a quadratic performance index. By using the successive approximation approach, the original optimal control problem is transformed into a sequence of nonhomogeneous linear two-point boundary value (TPBV) problems without time-delay and time-advance terms. The optimal control law obtained consists of an accurate feedback terms and a time-delay compensation term which is the limit of the solution sequence of the adjoint equations. By using a finite-step iteration of the time-delay compensation term of the optimal solution sequence, a suboptimal control law is obtained. Simulation examples are employed to test the validity of the proposed approach.     

虚拟控制增益函数未知的随机非线性系统模糊自适应控制

The problem of track control is studied for a class of strict-feedback stochastic nonlinear systems in which unknown virtual control gain function is the main feature. First, the so-called stochastic LaSalle theory is extended to some extent, and accordingly, the results of global ultimate boundedness for stochastic nonlinear systems are developed. Next, a new design scheme of fuzzy adaptive control is proposed. The advantage of it is that it does not require priori knowledge of virtual control gain function sign, which is usually demanded in many designs. At the same time, the track performance of closed-loop systems is improved by adaptive modifying the estimated error upper bound. By theoretical analysis, the signals of closed-loop systems are globally ultimately bounded in probability and the track error converges to a small residual set around the origin in 4th-power expectation.     

未知相对度非线性系统的一阶D型迭代学习控制

The classical D-type iterative learning control law depends crucially on the relative degree of the controlled system, high order differential iterative learning law must be taken for systems with high order relative degree. It is very difficult to ascertain the relative degree of the controlled system for uncertain nonlinear systems. A first-order D-type iterative learning control design method is presented for a class of nonlinear systems with unknown relative degree based on dummy model in this paper. A dummy model with relative degree 1 is constructed for a class of nonlinear systems with unknown relative degree. A first-order D-type iterative learning control law is designed based on the dummy model, so that the dummy model can track the desired trajectory perfectly, and the controlled system can track the desired trajectory within a certain error. The simulation example demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of the presented method.

The optimal control problem for nonlinear interconnected large-scale dynamic systems is considered. A successive approximation approach for designing the optimal controller is proposed with respect to quadratic performance indexes. By using the approach, the high order, coupling, nonlinear two-point boundary value (TPBV) problem is transformed into a sequence of linear decoupling TPBV problems. It is proven that the TPBV problem sequence uniformly converges to the optimal control for nonlinear interconnected large-scale systems. A suboptimal control law is obtained by using a finite iterative result of the optimal control sequence.

Experience-Based Iterative Learning Controllers for Robotic Systems

An experience based iterative learning controller is proposed for a general class of robotic systems. Experience of the iterative learning controller is stored in the memory in terms of input output data and later used for the prediction of the initial control input for a new desired trajectory. It is proved in this paper that using this approach we can reduce the number of iterations to achieve a certain user defined tracking accuracy. This approach is very general and applicable to all kinds of existing iterative learning control schemes. Numerical illustrations showed the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Adaptive Iterative Learning Control for a Class of Nonlinear Time-varying Systems with Unknown Delays and Input Dead-zone

This paper presents an adaptive iterative learning control (AILC) scheme for a class of nonlinear systems with unknown time-varying delays and unknown input dead-zone. A novel nonlinear form of dead-zone nonlinearity is presented. The assumption of identical initial condition for iterative learning control (ILC) is removed by introducing boundary layer function. The uncertainties with time-varying delays are compensated for by using appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and Young0s inequality. Radial basis function neural networks are used to model the time-varying uncertainties. The hyperbolic tangent function is employed to avoid the problem of singularity. According to the property of hyperbolic tangent function, the system output is proved to converge to a small neighborhood of the desired trajectory by constructing Lyapunov-like composite energy function (CEF) in two cases, while keeping all the closedloop signals bounded. Finally, a simulation example is presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.      

Observer-based Iterative and Repetitive Learning Control for a Class of Nonlinear Systems

In this paper, both output-feedback iterative learning control (ILC) and repetitive learning control (RLC) schemes are proposed for trajectory tracking of nonlinear systems with state-dependent time-varying uncertainties. An iterative learning controller, together with a state observer and a fully-saturated learning mechanism, through Lyapunov-like synthesis, is designed to deal with time-varying parametric uncertainties. The estimations for outputs, instead of system outputs themselves, are applied to form the error equation, which helps to establish convergence of the system outputs to the desired ones. This method is then extended to repetitive learning controller design. The boundedness of all the signals in the closed-loop is guaranteed and asymptotic convergence of both the state estimation error and the tracking error is established in both cases of ILC and RLC. Numerical results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed methods.      

Noise-Tolerant ZNN-Based Data-Driven Iterative Learning Control for Discrete Nonaffine Nonlinear MIMO Repetitive Systems

Aiming at the tracking problem of a class of discrete nonaffine nonlinear multi-input multi-output (MIMO) repetitive systems subjected to separable and nonseparable disturbances, a novel data-driven iterative learning control (ILC) scheme based on the zeroing neural networks (ZNNs) is proposed. First, the equivalent dynamic linearization data model is obtained by means of dynamic linearization technology, which exists theoretically in the iteration domain. Then, the iterative extended state observer (IESO) is developed to estimate the disturbance and the coupling between systems, and the decoupled dynamic linearization model is obtained for the purpose of controller synthesis. To solve the zero-seeking tracking problem with inherent tolerance of noise, an ILC based on noise-tolerant modified ZNN is proposed. The strict assumptions imposed on the initialization conditions of each iteration in the existing ILC methods can be absolutely removed with our method. In addition, theoretical analysis indicates that the modified ZNN can converge to the exact solution of the zero-seeking tracking problem. Finally, a generalized example and an application-oriented example are presented to verify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed process.
