Abstract

High-order repetitive control has previously been introduced to either improve the robustness for period-time uncertainty or reduce the sensitivity for non-periodic inputs of standard repetitive control schemes. This paper presents a systematic, semidefinite programming based approach to compute high-order repetitive controllers that yield an optimal trade-off between these two performance criteria. The methodology is numerically illustrated through trade-off curves for various controller orders and levels of period-time uncertainty. Moreover, existing high-order repetitive control approaches are shown to correspond to specific points on these curves.
