Abstract
Iterative learning control requires initial repositioning, while the time functions to be learned should be of periodicity in repetitive control. However, there are cases in practice where the time-varying unknowns are not periodic but repetitive, and repetitive learning control is applicable with avoidance of initial repositioning. In this paper, repetitive learning control designs are presented for a broader class of nonlinear systems over finite intervals. The Freeman formula is modified and used for stabilization of the nominal nonlinear time-varying system undertaken. The global stability of the learning system and asymptotic convergence of the tracking error are established through analysis of both partially and fully saturated learning algorithms, respectively. The repetitive learning control method is theoretically shown to be effective in dealing with time-varying parametric uncertainties.
