Analytic nonlinear H/sub ∞/ optimal control for robotic manipulators

摘要

Recent successes in nonlinear H/sub /spl infin// control design has been applied to control of robot manipulator systems. It is known that the existence of H/sub /spl infin// optimal control reduces to solvability of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs partial differential equation, which is very difficult to solve. In this article, a robust control in the sense of L/sub 2/-gain attenuation from an external disturbance and one due to model uncertainties is designed for a class of Euler-Lagrange system based on a class of analytic solution to the associated Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs equation.
