In this article, a fractional-order adaptive iterative learning control scheme is proposed for a class of parameterized fractional-order systems with unknown control gain and backlash-like hysteresis nonlinearity under disturbance. Based on the sufficient condition for the stability of linear fractional-order systems, a sliding mode surface of tracking errors is constructed to facilitate the controller design and stability analysis. A new boundary layer function is designed by using Mittag-Leffler function to relax the restriction of the identical initial condition of iterative learning control design. The fractional-order differential-type adaptive laws and difference-type learning law are designed to estimate unknown constant parameters and time-varying parameter, respectively. To deal with the influence of backlash-like hysteresis nonlinearity reminder term and unknown bounded external disturbance, a robust control term is designed by employing the hyperbolic tangent function with a convergent series sequence which can guarantee the learning convergence along iteration axis. By constructing Lyapunov-like composite energy function, the stability analysis is presented to prove the convergence of the system output to a small neighborhood of the desired trajectory and the boundedness of all the closed-loop signals. Finally, a simulation example of second-order nonlinear fractional-order system is presented, which demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed fractional-order adaptive iterative learning control scheme.
