Due to the under-actuated and strong coupling characteristics of quadrotor aircraft, traditional trajectory tracking methods have low control precision, and poor anti-interference ability. A novel fuzzy proportional-interactive-derivative (PID)-type iterative learning control (ILC) was designed for a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The control method combined PID-ILC control and fuzzy control, so it inherited the robustness to disturbances and system model uncertainties of the ILC control. A new control law based on the PID-ILC algorithm was introduced to solve the problem of chattering caused by an external disturbance in the ILC control alone. Fuzzy control was used to set the PID parameters of three learning gain matrices to restrain the influence of uncertain factors on the system and improve the control precision. The system stability with the new design was verified using Lyapunov stability theory. The Gazebo simulation showed that the proposed design method creates effective ILC controllers for quadrotor aircraft.

Unknown Control

An adaptive iterative learning control approach is proposed for a class of single-input single-output uncertain nonlinear systems with completely unknown control gain. Unlike the ordinary iterative learning controls that require some preconditions on the learning gain to stabilize the dynamic systems, the adaptive iterative learning control achieves the convergence through a learning gain in a Nussbaum-type function for the unknown control gain estimation. This paper shows that all tracking errors along a desired trajectory in a finite time interval can converge into any given precision through repetitive tracking. Simulations are carried out to show the validity of the proposed control method.

To suppress the speed ripple of a permanent magnet synchronous motor in a seeker servo system, we propose an accelerated iterative learning control with an adjustable learning interval. First, according to the error of current iterative learning for the system, we determine the next iterative learning interval and conduct real-time correction on the learning gain. For the learning interval, as the number of iterations increases, the actual interval that needs correction constantly shortens, accelerating the convergence speed. Second, we analyze the specific structure of the controller while applying reasonable assumptions pertaining to its condition. Using the λ-norm, we analyze and apply our mathematical knowledge to obtain a strict mathematical proof on the P-type iterative learning control and obtain the condition of convergence for the controller. Finally, we apply the proposed method for periodic ripple inhibition of the torque rotation speed of the permanent magnet synchronous motor and establish the system model; we use the periodic load torque to simulate the ripple torque of the synchronous motor. The simulation and experimental results indicate the effectiveness of the method.

Overhead Power Lines

Wind disturbances and noise severely affect Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) when monitoring and finding faults in overhead power lines. Accordingly, we propose repetitive learning as a new solution for the problem. In particular, the performance of Iterative Learning Control (ILC) that are based on optimal approaches are examined, namely (i) Gradient-based ILC and (ii) Norm Optimal ILC. When considering the repetitive nature of fault-finding tasks for electrical overhead power lines, this study develops, implements and evaluates optimal ILC algorithms for a UAV model. Moreover, we suggest attempting a learning gain variation on the standard optimal algorithms instead of heuristically selecting from the previous range. The results of both simulations and experiments of gradient-based norm optimal control reveal that the proposed ILC algorithm has not only contributed to good trajectory tracking, but also good convergence speed and the ability to cope with exogenous disturbances such as wind gusts.

Service load replication performed on multiaxial hydraulic test rigs has been widely applied in automotive engineering for durability testing in laboratory. The frequency-domain off-line iterative learning control is used to generate the desired drive file, i.e. the input signals which drive the actuators of the test rig. During the iterations an experimentally identified linear frequency-domain system model is used. As the durability test rig and the specimen under test have a strong nonlinear behavior, a large number of iterations are needed to generate the drive file. This process will cause premature deterioration to the specimen unavoidably. In order to accelerate drive file construction, a method embedding complex conjugate gradient algorithm into the conventional off-line iterative learning control is proposed to reproduce the loading conditions. The basic principle and monotone convergence of the method is presented. The drive signal is updated according to the complex conjugate gradient and the optimal learning gain. An optimal learning gain can be obtained by an estimate loop. Finally, simulations are carried out based on the identified parameter model of a real spindle-coupled multiaxial test rig. With real-life spindle forces from the wheel force transducer in the proving ground test to be replicated, the simulation results indicate that the proposed conventional off-line iterative learning control with complex conjugate gradient algorithm allows generation of drive file more rapidly and precisely compared with the state-of-the-art off-line iterative learning control. Few have been done about the proposed method before. The new method is not limited to the durability testing and can be extended to other systems where repetitive tracking task is required.

For the repetitive motion control, inaccurate model, and other issues of industrial robots, this article presents a novel control method that the proportion differentiation-type iterative learning parameters are self-tuning based on artificial bee colony algorithm. Considering the influence of the numerical value of iterative learning parameters on the control system, especially in the early iteration, the control effect is not satisfactory. Thus, the artificial bee colony algorithm is introduced in this article. Using bee colony as search unit, the parameters in iterative learning are optimized through the exchange of information and the survival of fittest between them. And then the optimized results are returned to iterative learning control algorithm. Finally, the digital simulation of a two-degrees-of-freedom manipulator and the experimental verification of a cable-driven robot with its first two joints are carried out. The results show that the iterative learning control based on the artificial bee colony algorithm has faster convergence and better control effect than the iterative learning control with fixed parameters.
