Abstract:

This paper presents a novel robust fractional PIλ controller design for flexible joint electrically driven robots. Because of using voltage control strategy, the proposed approach is free of problems arising from torque control strategy in the design and implementation. In fact, the motor's current includes the effects of nonlinearities and coupling in the robot manipulator. Therefore, cancellation of motor current by feedback linearization in voltage control strategy can cancel the highly nonlinear dynamics of manipulators. Thus, it can guarantee robustness of control system to both structured and unstructured uncertainties associated with robot dynamics. As a result, the proposed control is simple, fast response and superior to torque control approaches. The control method is verified by stability analysis. Simulations on a two-link actuated flexible-joint robot show the effectiveness of the proposed control approach. Compared with ordinary controller, the fractional type shows a better tracking performance.

Integer-order Versus Fractional-order Adaptive Fuzzy Control of Electrically Driven Robots with Elastic Joints

Real-time robust adaptive fuzzy fractional-order control of electrically driven flexible-joint robots has been addressed in this paper. Two important practical situations have been considered: the fact that robot actuators have limited voltage, and the fact that current signals are contaminated with noise. Through of a novel voltage-based fractional order control for an integer-order dynamical ...

Task-space Control of Electrically Driven Robots

Actuators of robot operate in the joint-space while the end-effect or of robot is controlled in the task-space. Therefore, designing a control system for a robotic system in the task-space requires the jacobian matrix information for transforming joint-space to task-space, which suffers from uncertainties. This paper deals with the robust task-space control of electrically driven robot manipula...

Function Approximation Approach for Robust Adaptive Control of Flexible joint Robots

This paper is concerned with the problem of designing a robust adaptive controller for flexible joint robots (FJR). Under the assumption of weak joint elasticity, FJR is firstly modeled and converted into singular perturbation form. The control law consists of a FAT-based adaptive control strategy and a simple correction term. The first term of the controller is used to stability of the slow dy...
