Abstract :
A method for the sythesis and analysis of robust control designs for high performance manipulator arms is described. Input-output norms are used to analyze the robustness of flexible manipulator control designs in the presence of flexible mode spillover and parameter uncertainty. A multivariable Wiener-Hopf control design is used to provide high gains in the necessary frequency range and low gaines outside this range, in order to achieve performance and stability robustness.
