Iterative learning control
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Iterative Learning Control (ILC) is a method of tracking control for systems that work in a repetitive mode. Examples of systems that operate in a repetitive manner include robot arm manipulators, chemical batch processes and reliability testing rigs. In each of these tasks the system is required to perform the same action over and over again with high precision.
By using information from previous repetitions, a suitable control action can found iteratively. The internal model principle yields conditions under which perfect tracking can be achieved. A typical control law is of the form:
- up + 1 = up + K * ep
where up is the input to the system during the pth repetition, ep is the tracking error during the pth repetition and K is a design parameter.
