High-quality low-speed motion control calls for precise position and velocity signals. However, velocity estimation based on simple numerical differentiation from only the position measurement may be very erroneous, especially in the low-speed regions. A simple efficient high-quality instantaneous velocity estimation algorithm is developed in this paper, by using the position measurements only. The proposed estimator is constructed based on the fact that numerical integration can provide more stable and accurate results than numerical differentiation in the presence of noise. The main attraction of the new algorithm is that it is very effective as far as in low-speed ranges, high robustness against noise, and easy implementation with simple computation. Both extensive simulations and experimental tests have been performed to verify the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach

Abstract This paper presents a methodology for the design of optimal kinematical characteristics of Stewart platform using genetic algorithms (GAs). The optimal kinematics index which expressed by Jacobian matrix of Stewart platform is first deduced, and then the minimum of condition numbers of Jacobian matrix in the whole trajectory tracing workspace is used as the objective function. The constrained optimal design problem is transformed to unrestrained optimal one which is suitable to GAs by penalizing strategy, and the corresponding real-encoding scheme is used. This genetic methodology for optimal kinematical Stewart platform is illustrated by applying to design the fine tuning Stewart platform for large spherical radio telescope, and its validity is verified with the kinematic accuracy comparison of genetic-designed fine tuning platform with that of conventional Quasi-Newton optimal method.

A simple nonlinear observer is proposed for a class of uncertain nonlinear multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) mechanical systems whose dynamics are first-order differentiable. The global asymptotic observation of the proposed observer is proved. Thus, the observer can be designed independently of the controller. Furthermore, the proposed observer is formulated without any detailed model knowledge of the system. These advantages make it easy to implement. Numerical simulations are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed observer.

In this paper, we provide an answer to the long-standing question of designing global asymptotically stable proportional-integral-derivative (PID) regulators with only position feedback for uncertain robots. Our main contribution is to establish the global asymptotic stability of the controlled system by using Lyapunov direct method and LaSalles invariance principle. We provide explicit conditions on the regulator gains to ensure global asymptotic stability. The proposed controller does not utilize the modeling information in the control formulation, and thus permits easy implementation. Simulations performed on a planar two degrees-of-freedom robot manipulator demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

A simple continuous output feedback proportional-derivative (PD) plus desired gravity compensation controller is proposed to solve the global finite-time regulation of robot manipulators with position measurements only. The global finite-time convergence is proved by using Lyapunov theory and finite-time stability theory. Simulations preformed on a two degrees-of-freedom (DOF) manipulator demonstrate the expected properties of the proposed approach.

A simple nonlinear proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller is proposed for global finite-time regulation of robot manipulators without velocity measurements. A Lyapunov-based stability argument is employ to prove global finite-time stabilization. The proposed control algorithm does not involve the model parameters in the control law formulation and the control gains can be explicitly determined based on some well-known bounds extracted from the robot dynamics, and thus permits easy implementation. Simulations are included to demonstrate the expected properties of the proposed approach.

High-quality low speed motion control calls for precise position and velocity signals. However, velocity estimation based on simple numerical differentiation from the only position measurement may be very erroneous, especially in the low-speed regions. A simple linear velocity estimator is proposed based for high-quality instantaneous velocity estimation, on position measurements only. The proposed estimator is constructed based on the fact that velocity belongs to the chain of kinematic quantities: position and velocity, and numerical integration can provide more stable and accurate results than numerical differentiation in the presence of noise. The main attraction of the new algorithm is that it is very effective as well as in low-speed ranges, high robustness against noise, and easy to implement with simple computation. Both extensive simulations and experimental tests have been performed to verify the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach.

Abstract In this paper, we provide a simple decentralized saturated repetitive learning controller for asymptotic tracking of robot manipulators under actuator saturation. The proposed control consists of a saturated nonlinear proportional plus derivative action and a saturated learning-based feedforward compensation term. A Lyapunov-like stability argument is employed to show semiglobal asymptotic tracking. Advantages of the proposed controller include an absence of modeling parameter in the control law formulation and an ability to ensure actuator constraints are not breached. This is accomplished by selecting control gains a priori, removing the possibility of actuator failure due to excessive torque input levels. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is illustrated via simulations.

In this paper, we provide an answer to the longstanding question of designing global asymptotically stable proportional-integral-derivative (PID) regulators for uncertain robotic manipulators. Our main contribution is to establish the global asymptotic stability of the controlled system with the commonly-used PID controller by using Lyapunovs direct method and LaSalles invariance principle. Furthermore, an improved nonlinear proportional-integral plus derivative (NPI-D) controller is proposed to fast the transient. Simulations performed on a planar two degrees-of-freedom (DOF) robot manipulator demonstrate the improved performance of the proposed NPI-D controller over the commonly-used PID controller.
