The tracking control problem via state feedback for uncertain current-fed permanent magnet step motors with non-sinusoidal flux distribution and uncertain position-dependent load torque is addressed: a periodic reference signal (of known period) for the rotor position is required to be tracked. A robust iterative learning control algorithm is designed which, for any motor initial condition and without requiring any resetting procedure, guarantees, despite system uncertainties: exponential convergence of the rotor position tracking error to a residual ball (centered at the origin) whose radius can be made arbitrarily small by properly setting the learning gain; asymptotic convergence of the rotor position tracking error to zero. A sufficient condition for the asymptotic estimation of the uncertain reference input achieving, for compatible initial conditions, perfect tracking is derived. Robustness with respect to a finite memory implementation of the control algorithm based on the piecewise linear approximation theory is shown to be guaranteed; satisfactory performances of a discrete-time implementation of the control algorithm are obtained in realistic simulations for the full-order voltage-fed motor.
