Abstract:

In this paper, an optimization-based iterative learning control approach is presented. Given a desired trajectory to be followed, the proposed learning algorithm improves the system performance from trial to trial by exploiting the experience gained from previous repetitions. Taking advantage of the a-priori knowledge about the systems dominating dynamics, a data-based update rule is derived which adapts the feedforward input signal after each trial. By combining traditional model-based optimal filtering methods with state-of-the-art optimization techniques such as convex programming, an effective and computationally highly efficient learning strategy is obtained. Moreover, the derived formalism allows for the direct treatment of input and state constraints. Different (nonlinear) performance objectives can be specified defining the overall learning behavior. Finally, the proposed algorithm is successfully applied to the benchmark problem of swinging up a pendulum using open-loop control only.
