Repetitive Control is a control method developed by a group of
Japanese scholars in 1980s. It is based on the
Internal Model Principle and used specifically in dealing with
periodic signals, for example, tracking periodic reference or rejecting periodic disturbances. The repetitive control system has been proven to be a very effective and practical method dealing with periodic signals.
Repetitive control has some similarities with
iterative learning control
Iterative Learning Control (ILC) is a method of tracking control for systems that work in a repetitive mode. Examples of systems that operate in a repetitive manner include robot arm manipulators, chemical batch processes and reliability testing
