Decentralized neural identification and control for robotics manipulators

摘要

This paper presents a decentralized control scheme, based on a recurrent neural identifier with a block control structure, and its application to robotics manipulators. A local joint controller is proposed for each joint, using only local angular position and velocity measurements. These very simple local joint controllers allow trajectory tracking, with reduced computations. The applicability of the proposed scheme is illustrated, via simulations, first by the applications to a two degree of freedom robotic manipulator and then to a seven degree of freedom one.
