A new data‐driven iterative learning control methodology is presented which uses the frequency response data of a system in order to avoid problem unmodelled dynamics associated with low‐order parametric models. convex optimisation formulated design filters such that convergence criterion minimised. Since used obtaining these filters, robustness ensured by eliminating uncertainty modelling process. The effectiveness method illustrated considering case study where proposed scheme applied...

Accurate control of power converters is a vital activity in large physics projects. Several different scenarios may coexist, including regulation circuit’s voltage, current, or field strength within magnet. Depending on the type facility, reference value be changed asynchronously synchronously with other circuits. Synchronous changes demand under cyclic timing system. In cases, calculated real-time by an outer loop some quantity, such as tune beam synchrotron. The stage unipolar bipolar...

Abstract The data-driven control approach is a methodology in which controller designed without the need of model. Parametric uncertainties and associated unmodeled dynamics are therefore irrelevant; only source uncertainty comes from measurement process. CERN Power Converter Control Libraries (CCLIBS) have been updated to include H-infinity methods recently proposed literature. In particular, two-step convex optimization algorithm performed for obtaining 2-degree-of-freedom parameters....
