Abstract :
A novel control algorithm, called the adaptive learning PD (AL-PD) control method, is proposed. This control algorithm consists of a PD control as a basic feedback loop and a feedforward loop that is generated from the previous control state in an iterative mode. The stability analysis of AL-PD control is proved that shows that the AL-PD control can guarantee asymptotic convergence for trajectory tracking. Fixed gain PD control, nonlinear PD (NPD) control, and AL-PD control are applied to the control of two kinds of robotic systems. A comparative study of three PD-based controllers is conducted to understand how different control schemes affect the trajectory tracking performance. It is confirmed through simulation that the proposed AL-PD control is very promising for improving the tracking performance of robotic systems.
