A fully adaptive decentralized control of robot manipulators
In this paper, we develop a fully adaptive decentralized controller of robot manipulators for trajectory tracking. With high-order and adaptive variable-structure compensations, the proposed scheme makes both position and velocity tracking errors of robot manipulators globally converge to zero asymptotically while allowing all signals in closed-loop systems to be bounded, even without any prior knowledge of robot manipulators. Thus this control scheme is claimed to be fully adaptive. Even when the proposed scheme is modified to avoid the possible chattering in actual implementations, the overall performance will remain appealing. Finally, numerical results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed schemes at the end. (C) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
