In this article, we propose a recent iterative learning algorithm for sensor data fusion to detect pitch actuator failures in wind turbines. The development of this proposed approach is based on iterative learning control and Lyapunov’s theories. Numerical experiments were carried out to support our main contribution. These experiments consist of using a well-known wind turbine hydraulic pitch actuator model with some common faults, such as high oil content in the air, hydraulic leaks, and pump wear.

Fundamental concepts of Iterative Learning Control (ILC) are applied to path generating problems in mechanisms. As an illustration to such class of problems, an adjustable four-bar linkage is used. The coupler point of a four-bar traces a coupler curve that will in general deviate from the desired coupler path. Except at the precision points, the coupler curve will exhibit some structural error, which is the deviation from the specified curve. The structural error will repeat itself every cycle at exactly the same points over the range of interest. Since ILC is a methodology that was developed to handle similar repetitive errors in control systems, it is believed that it will be well served to apply it to this class of problems. Results show that ILC can be simple to implement, and it is found to be very well suited for such path generation problems.

A class of modeling undesirable single degree of freedom system is studied by using iterative learning control. The proposed iterative learning algorithm constantly updates the control input according to output error until the desired output occurred. So the system with designed controller can achieve perfect accuracy. We have proved convergence properties in iteration domain and simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the presented method.
