Abstract: This paper puts forward the hybrid control algorithm, which integrates the iterative learning control (ILC) scheme with proportional integral velocity (PIV) control, for improved trajectory tracking of magnetic levitation system. ILC is a type of model-free controller, which is used for systems that perform repetitive tasks. Adjusting the control inputs based on the error information obtained during previous iterations, ILC tries to enhance the transient response of the closed-loop system. One of the striking features of ILC is that even without the full dynamic model of the plant, it can yield perfect trajectory tracking by learning the plant dynamics through iterations. Adopting this learning control feature of ILC, this paper aims to synthesize ILC with PIV for both improved tracking and better robustness compared to conventional PIV. The efficacy of the proposed ILC-PIV controller framework is assessed through a simulation study on the magnetic levitation plant for reference following application.

TL;DR: A new control structure for tasks where explicit disturbance compensation is not only critical for overcoming poor feedback performance but is also challenging due to the complexity and nonrepetitive nature of the interaction between the plant and the environment is proposed.
Abstract: This paper proposes a new control structure for tasks where explicit disturbance compensation is not only critical for overcoming poor feedback performance but is also challenging due to the complexity and nonrepetitive nature of the interaction between the plant and the environment. The approach proposed uses a particular form of iterative learning control (ILC) to estimate the previous disturbances, which are used as a preview of the disturbance in the next iteration. A disturbance observer is used to compensate for the difference between the ILC prediction and the true disturbance. The controller is evaluated and compared with a proportional controller, with ILC, and with an observer-based controller in extensive field trials using an automated excavator.
