Abstract:This article reconsiders the data quantization problem in iterative learning control (ILC) for nonlinear nonaffine systems from four aspects: 1) use of available additional control knowledge; 2) different tracking tasks; 3) adaptation to uncertainties; and 4) data-driven design and analysis framework. An iterative linear data model (iLDM) is established first to represent the nonlinear nonaffine system for subsequent control algorithm design and analysis under a data-driven framework. A quantitative data-driven adaptive ILC (QDDAILC) is then developed using quantized tracking errors based on the nonlifted iLDM and, thus, additional available input information from previous time instants can be utilized to improve control performance. The parameter estimation derived from an adaptive updating law makes the learning gain of the QDDAILC adjustable, therefore improving the robustness to uncertainties. Due to the coupled dynamics among inputs and tracking errors, a new double-dynamics analysis method is introduced besides the contraction mapping principle to show error convergence. A quantized data-driven adaptive point-to-point ILC (QDDAPTPILC) is further presented using partial quantized measurements at the specified instants for multi-intermediate-point tracking. Simulation examples verify theoretical results and illustrate that the QDDAPTPILC outperforms the QDDAILC for multi-intermediate-point tracking tasks because it removes the unnecessary constraints.
