An LMI Approach to Robust Iterative Learning Control for Linear Discrete-time Systems

摘要

This paper presents a new robust convergence condition of iterative learning control (ILC) for linear multivariable discrete-time systems in the presence of iteration-varying uncertainty. This method is based on linear matrix inequality (LMI) and provides a fixed learning gain over time and iteration. Since the convergence of the ILC algorithm may change due to uncertainty in the parameters of a system, and the ILC algorithm is incapable of dealing with iteration-related challenges, it is a major challenge to reject the effect of iteration varying uncertainty. In this paper, first, a convergence condition of the ILC algorithm is designed based on closed-loop system stability in the iteration domain, and second, a new robust convergence condition is achieved by the LMI approach. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed robust convergence scheme is evaluated through two numerical examples.
