An Iterative Learning Control Algorithm With Gain Adaptation for Stochastic Systems.

This paper proposes an iterative learning control (ILC) algorithm with gain adaptation for discrete-time stochastic systems. The algorithm is based on Kesten's accelerated stochastic approximation (SA) algorithm. The gain adaptation uses only tracking error information, and, hence, is a data-driven adaptation approach. If stochastic noises account for a small proportion of the tracking error, the learning gain matrix remains constant with a high probability. If stochastic noises dominate the tracking error, the learning gain matrix is decreasing. Therefore, the new ILC algorithm converges more quickly than existing SA-based algorithms. In addition, the classic P-type ILC law for noise-free systems is a special case of the new ILC algorithm. The behaviors of the proposed ILC algorithm are demonstrated through examples.
