Task-space asymptotic tracking control of robots using a direct adaptive Taylor series controller

Abstract

This paper presents a robust task-space control approach using a direct adaptive Taylor series controller for electrically driven robot manipulators. In an adaptive Taylor series control scheme, the parameters of controller are directly tuned in order to reduce the task-space tracking error in the presence of structured and unstructured uncertainty. Also, the upper bound of approximation error is estimated to form a robustifying term and the asymptotic convergence of task-space tracking error and its time derivative is proven based on the stability analysis. Simulation results are included to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method.
