Indirect Adaptive Robust Control

In a general DIARC framework [13], the emphasis is always on the guaranteed transient performance and accurate trajectory tracking in the presence of uncertain nonlinearity and parametric uncertainties along with accurate parameter estimation for secondary purpose such as system health monitoring and prognosis. Need for accurate parameter estimation calls for the use of Least Square Estimation (LSE) type of algorithms for such a seamless integration of good tracking performance and accurate parameter estimation. This paper presents a physical model based integrated direct/indirect adaptive robust control (DIARC) strategy for a hydraulically actuated 3-DOF robotic arm. To avoid the need of acceleration feedback for DIARC back-stepping design, the property, that the adjoint matrix and the determinant of the inertial matrix could be linearly parameterized by certain suitably selected parameters is utilized. Unlike gradient-type parameter estimation law, which used overparamterization, there is no multiple estimation of the single parameter. Theoretically, the resulting controller is able to take into account not only the effect of parametric uncertainties coming from the payload and various hydraulic parameters but also the effect of uncertain nonlinearities. Furthermore, the proposed DIARC controller guarantees a prescribed output tracking transient performance and final tracking accuracy while achieving asymptotic output tracking in the presence of parametric uncertainties only. Simulation results based on a three degree-of-freedom (DOF) hydraulic robot arm (a scaled down version of an industrial back-hoe/excavator arm) are presented to illustrate the proposed control algorithm.

Following Error

The coupling, nonlinearity, and uncertainty characteristics of vehicle dynamics make the accurate longitudinal and lateral control of an automated and connected vehicle platoon a tough task. Little research has been conducted to fully address the characteristics. By using the ideology of constraint-following control this article proposes an integrated longitudinal and lateral adaptive robust control methodology for a vehicle platoon with a bidirectional communication topology. The platoon control objectives contain the path tracking stability, the platoon internal stability, and the string stability. First, we establish the nonlinear kinematics path tracking model and the coupled vehicle longitudinal and lateral dynamical model that contains time-varying uncertainties. Second, we design a series of nonlinear equality constraints that directly guarantee the control objectives based on the kinematic relations. On this basis, an adaptive robust constraint-following control is proposed. It is shown that the control guarantees the uniform boundedness and the uniform ultimate boundedness of the constraint-following error and the uncertainty estimation error. Finally, simulation results are provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.

The Stability

This article proposes a computationally efficient adaptive robust control scheme for a quad-rotor with cable-suspended payloads. Motion of payload introduces unknown disturbances that affect the performance of the quad-rotor controlled with conventional schemes, thus novel adaptive robust controllers with both integer- and fractional-order dynamics are proposed for the trajectory tracking of quad-rotor with cable-suspended payload. The disturbances acting on quad-rotor due to the payload motion are estimated by utilizing adaptive laws derived from integer- and fractional-order Lyapunov functions. The stability of the proposed control systems is guaranteed using integer- and fractional-order Lyapunov theorems. Overall, three variants of the control schemes, namely adaptive fractional-order sliding mode (AFSMC), adaptive sliding mode (ASMC), and classical Sliding mode controllers (SMC)s) are tested using processor in the loop experiments, and based on the two performance indicators, namely robustness and computational resource utilization, the best control scheme is evaluated. From the results presented, it is verified that ASMC scheme exhibits comparable robustness as of SMC and AFSMC, while it utilizes less sources as compared to AFSMC.
