Decentralized neural block control for an industrial PA10-7CE robot arm

This paper presents a solution of the trajectory tracking problem for robotic manipulators using a recurrent high order neural network (RHONN) structure to identify the robot arm dynamics, and based on this model a discrete-time control law is derived, which combines block control and the sliding mode techniques. The block control approach is used to design a nonlinear sliding surface such that the resulting sliding mode dynamics is described by a desired linear system. The neural network learning is performed on-line by Kalman filtering. The local controller for each joint uses only local angular position and velocity measurements. The applicability of the proposed control scheme is illustrated via simulations.
