Model inversion Iterative Learning Control (ILC) for a class of nonsquare linear time variant/invariant multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems is considered in this paper. A new ILC algorithm is developed based on σ-right inversion of nonsquare learning gain matrices to resolve the matrix inversion problems appeared in the direct model inversion of nonsquare MIMO systems. Furthermore, a sufficient and necessary monotonic convergence condition is established. With rigorous analysis, the proposed ILC scheme guarantees the convergence of the tracking error. To prove the effectiveness and to illustrate the performance of the proposed approach for linear time-invariant (LTI) and time-varying nonsquare systems, two illustrative examples are simulated.
