Sampling-based Event-Triggered Iterative Learning Control in Nonlinear Hyperbolic Distributed Parameter Systems

This article explores a sampling-based event-triggered iterative learning control (SETILC) method for achieving precise control in nonlinear hyperbolic distributed parameter systems. Firstly, by designing a Lyapunov function regarding the system output error, reasonable triggering conditions are derived to selectively update the system control input. Subsequently, a sampling-based event-triggered iterative learning control algorithm is proposed to further enhance the control performance of the system while avoiding the occurrence of Zeno phenomena. A condition sufficient for ensuring the convergence of the system’s tracking error to zero is presented, and its convergence is proven. Finally, the proposed method’s effectiveness is verified through numerical simulations.
