This book examines iterative learning control (ILC) with a focus on design and implementation. It presents a framework with various methodologies to ensure the learnable bandwidth in the ILC system to be set with a balance between performance and stability.
Dr. Danwei Wang received his Ph.D and MSE degrees from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 1989 and 1984, respectively. He received his B.E degree from the South China University of Technology, China in 1982.
