Although impedance control has huge application potential in human–robot cooperation, its engineering application is still quite limited, owing to the high nonlinearity of the human–robot dynamics and disturbances. This article presents a novel adaptive neural network controller with extended state observer for the human–robot interaction using output feedback. The adaptive neural network with extended state observer integrates the adaptive neural network and extended state observer to combine their advantages. The proposed algorithm can address the challenges encountered in human–machine systems, for example, slow convergence of neural networks, internal and external disturbances. Output feedback is realized using tracking differentiator to avoid the costly measurements of certain states. The errors of the closed-loop system are proven to converge to a small compact set containing 0 by Lyapunov theory. Simulations and experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed controller. Results show that the proposed strategy offers superior convergence and better tracking performance compared with the adaptive neural network. The proposed controller can be widely applied in various human–machine interactions to enhance productivity and efficiency.

In this paper, to address the spatial trajectory tracking problem of unmanned airships, a robust controller based on active disturbance rejection control is presented. By transforming the airship model to a standardized form, a straightforward design approach is adopted for the design of the controller. Active disturbance rejection control is composed of a tracking differentiator, an extended state observer, and a nonlinear state error feedback. The proposed controller replaces the conventional tracking differentiator with a third-order differentiator. The new tracking differentiator provides higher tracking precision and smoother transient process. The external disturbances and model uncertainties are observed by the extended state observer and compensated in the controller design, subsequently. Comparisons with technologies frequently used in the trajectory tracking are made through numerical simulation. The comparisons validate that the proposed controller provides satisfying performance and robustness in the presence of model uncertainty and external disturbance.

Control Scheme

This article proposed an extended state observer (ESO)–based output feedback control scheme for rigid spacecraft pose tracking without velocity feedback, which accounts for inertial uncertainties, external disturbances, and control input constraints. In this research, the 6-DOF tracking error dynamics is described by the exponential coordinates on SE(3). A novel continuous finite-time ESO is proposed to estimate the velocity information and the compound disturbance, and the estimations are utilized in the control law design. The ESO ensures a finite-time uniform ultimately bounded stability of the observation states, which is proved utilizing the homogeneity method. A non-singular finite-time terminal sliding mode controller based on super-twisting technology is proposed, which would drive spacecraft tracking the desired states. The other two observer-based controllers are also proposed for comparison. The superiorities of the proposed control scheme are demonstrated by theory analyses and numerical simulations.

Active Disturbance Rejection

An active disturbance rejection station-keeping control scheme is derived and analyzed for station-keeping missions of spacecraft along a class of unstable periodic orbits near collinear libration points of the Sun-Earth system. It is an error driven, rather than model-based control law, essentially accounting for the independence of model accuracy and linearization. An extended state observer is designed to estimate the states in real time by setting an extended state, that is, the sum of unmodeled dynamic and external disturbance. This total disturbance is compensated by a nonlinear state error feedback controller based on the extended state observer. A nonlinear tracking differentiator is designed to obtain the velocity of the spacecraft since only position signals are available. In addition, the system contradiction between rapid response and overshoot can be effectively solved via arranging the transient process in tracking differentiator. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed method is adequate for station-keeping of unstable Halo orbits in the presence of system uncertainties, initial injection errors, solar radiation pressure, and perturbations of the eccentric nature of the Earth's orbit. It is also shown that the closed-loop control system performance is improved significantly using our method comparing with the general LQR method.

In this article, an event-triggered discrete extended state observer–based model-free controller is developed for the position and attitude trajectory tracking of a quadrotor with uncertainties and external disturbances. The referred event-triggered discrete extended state observer–based model-free controller is composed of two event-triggered mechanisms, ultra-local model-based discrete extended state observer and proportional-derivative sub-controller. To reduce system output signal transmission, the event-triggered mechanism of output signal which owns dynamic and static threshold is designed. Based on event-triggered output signals, the discrete extended state observer is constructed to obtain the estimations of state values which are utilized as controller’s variables and to compensate for the lumped disturbances. The proportional-derivative sub-controller is adopted to guarantee the convergence of trajectory tracking error. To decrease control input signal transmission, the event-triggered mechanism of input signal that processes static threshold is constructed. Moreover, the stability analysis of overall quadrotor system with the proposed control strategy is investigated using Lyapunov theorem and the Zeno behavior is avoided. Finally, corresponding control scheme for quadrotor system is structured and the numerical comparative simulation and co-simulation experiment are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and performance of the proposed approach.

Linearization Errors

The ascent trajectory tracking problem of a launch vehicle is investigated in this paper. To improve the conventional trajectory linearization method which usually omits the linearization errors, the extended state observer (ESO) is employed in this paper to timely estimate the total disturbance which consists of the external disturbances and the modeling uncertainties resulting from linearization error. It is proven that the proposed trajectory tracking controller can guarantee the desired performance despite both external disturbances and the modeling uncertainties. Moreover, compared with the conventional linearization control method, the proposed controller is shown to have much better performance of uncertainty rejection. Finally, the feasibility and performance of this controller are illuminated via simulation studies.
