Abstract

In the present contribution, a methodology to solve the tracking control problem of robot manipulators through the use of a Proportional Retarded plus Gravity (PR+G) compensation scheme is presented. The main advantage of the proposal is to avoid the necessity of velocity measurements or their estimation, which is commonly used in most control schemes, such as the proportional derivative-type controllers or the computed torque control. The design of the PR+G controller is addressed via σ-stability analysis and its performance is tested in an experimental platform that consists of 2 degrees of the freedom robot manipulator. The proposed controller is compared with a classic proportional derivative plus gravity compensation scheme. The results are analyzed from a frequency perspective and measured by a quadratic error index.
