Linear motors (LMs) are widely used in numerous industry automation where precise and fast motions are required to convert electric energy into linear actuation without the need of any switching mechanism. This study aims to develop a control strategy of auto-tuning cross-coupled two-degree-of-freedom proportional-integral-derivative (ACC2PID) to achieve extremely high-precision contour control of a LMs-driven X-Y-Y stage. Three 2PID controllers are developed to control the mover positions in individual axes while two compensators are designed to eliminate the contour errors in biaxial motions. Furthermore, an improved artificial bee colony algorithm is employed as a powerful optimization technique so that all the control parameters can be concurrently evaluated and optimized online while ensuring the non-fragility of the proposed controller. In this way, the tracking error in each axis and contour errors of the biaxial motions can be concurrently minimized, and further, satisfactory positioning accuracy and synchronization performance can be achieved. Finally, the experimental comparison results confirm the validity of the proposed ACC2PID control system regarding the multi-axis contour tracking control of the highly uncertain and nonlinear LMs-driven X-Y-Y stage.

In this paper, a multi-dimensional Taylor network (MTN)-based adaptive tracking control approach is proposed for a class of switched nonlinear systems with input nonlinearity. Firstly, the input nonlinearity is assumed to be bounded by a sector interval. Secondly, with the help of MTNs approximating the unknown nonlinear functions, a novel adaptive MTN control scheme has the advantages of low cost, simple structure and real time feature is developed via backstepping technique. It is shown that the tracking error finally converges to a small domain around the origin and all signals in the closed-loop system are bounded. Finally, two examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

In this paper, for the first time, the observer-based decentralized output tracking control problem with preview action for a class of interconnected nonlinear systems is converted into a regulation problem for N augmented error subsystems composed of the tracking error dynamics, the difference equation of the state observer, and the available future reference trajectory dynamics associated with each individual subsystem. The developed innovative formulation of an observer-based decentralized preview tracking control scheme consists of the integral control action, the observer-based state feedback control action, and the preview action of the desired trajectory. The controller design feasibility conditions are formulated in terms of a linear matrix inequality (LMI) by using the Lyapunov function approach to ensure the existence of the suggested observer-based decentralized control strategy. Furthermore, both decentralized observer gain matrices and decentralized tracking controller gain matrices can be efficiently and simultaneously computed through a one-step LMI procedure. Stability analysis of the closed-loop augmented subsystem is carried out to illustrate that all tracking errors asymptotically converge toward zero. Finally, a numerical example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the suggested control approach.

The paper presents a new tracking control approach for a class of non-minimum phase linear systems. The proposed approach consists of two parts: trajectory planning and tracking controller design. The trajectory planning is solved as an optimization problem to improve the achievable transient performance under the fundamental constraints associated with perfect tracking of non-minimum phase systems. The recently proposed adaptive robust tracking controller for a class of non-minimum phase systems is then applied to guarantee that the tracking error dynamics can be stabilized with bounded internal states. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is illustrated through simulation on tracking control of a second order non-minimum phase linear system. Further works are underway to extend the proposed control strategy and trajectory design to a class of non-minimum phase nonlinear systems.

This paper presents an adaptive multi-dimensional Taylor network (MTN) control approach for a class of nonlinear systems with unknown parameters. MTN is employed to identify unknown nonlinear characteristics existing in the system, and then a novel adaptive MTN tracking control method is proposed, via backstepping technique. In the controller design, double adaptive laws are designed and appropriate Lyapunov functions are chosen to overcome the difficulties caused by the unknown parameters. The designed controller can guarantee that all the variables in the closed-loop systems are bounded and the tracking error can be arbitrarily small. Finally, simulation results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Linear motors have been playing a crucial role in mechanical motion systems due to its ability to provide a straight motion directly without mediate mechanical actuators. This paper investigates tracking control problems of Polysolenoid Linear Motor, which is a particular type of permanent magnet linear motor in a tubular structure. In order to deal with unmeasurable velocity, our method proposes a novel observer guaranteed asymptotic convergence of the observer errors. Then, based on observed velocity, our method proposes controllers for position-velocity and current tracking control concerning an unknown disturbance load problem by using Lyapunov direct method. The proposed controllers ensure that the position-velocity tracking error converges to arbitrarily small values by adjusting control parameters. Finally, the validity and effectiveness of our approach are shown in illustrative examples.

We investigate the event-triggered tracking control of networked manipulator in the presence of external disturbance and a variety of system uncertainties. The event-triggered controller is designed by the nonlinear disturbance observer–based control approach, which can dynamically compensate for both errors caused by disturbances and the undesirable effects caused by event-triggering rules. A rigorous Lyapunov stability analysis method is proposed to show that the boundedness of all the signals in the closed-loop system can be guaranteed while in the absence of the input-to-state stability assumption related to measurement errors, tracking error can be constrained to an arbitrarily small set without escaping. Finally, by some simulation results, the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed control approach is demonstrated.

SUMMARYWhen the end-effector of a robotic arm grasps different payload masses, the output of joint motion will vary. By using a model reference adaptive control approach, the payload variation effect can be solved. This paper describes the design for a hybrid controller for serial robotic manipulators by combining a PID controller and a model reference adaptive controller (MRAC) in order to further improve the accuracy and joint convergence speed performance. The convergence performance of the PID controller, the MRAC and the PID+MRAC hybrid controller for 1-DOF, 2-DOF and subsequently 3-DOF manipulators is compared. The comparison results show that the convergence speed and its performance for the MRAC and the PID+ MRAC controllers is better than that of the PID controller, and the convergence performance for the hybrid control is better than that of the MRAC control.
