Mixed Sensitivity H2/H∞ Control of a Flexible-Link Robotic Arm

چکیده
Dynamics of multi-link manipulators with flexible links include complex high-order equations which make their control problem very challenging. This paper presents a new method for simultaneous motion and vibration control of a twolink flexible manipulator using H2/H∞ control. A multi-element finite element model of the manipulator is casted into the generalized plant model, and H2 and H∞ controllers are synthesised employing the LMI-based optimization algorithm of MATLAB. Finally, a mixed sensitivity H2/H∞ control is proposed based on an H2 norm constrained H∞ control design. It is shown that the method of control design can be used successfully for the control of the joint parameters as well as suppression of vibration at the tip (end-effector) of the manipulator.

متن کاملGravity-Compensated Robust Control for Micro-Macro Space Manipulators During a Rest to Rest Maneuver
Many space applications require robotic manipulators which have large workspace and are capable of precise motion. Micro-macro manipulators are considered as the best solution to this demand. Such systems consist of a long flexible arm and a short rigid arm. Kinematic redundancy and presence of unactuated flexible degrees of freedom, makes it difficult to control micro-macro manipulators. This ...

Mixed H2/H∞ method is proposed to design a controller for flexible joint robots (FJR) considering actuator saturation. By considering the control action in the mixed sensitivity function one can reduce the amplitude of the control action but this may affect all frequencies. A more advanced method based on frequency weighting of the control action contribution in the mixed sensitivity function i...
