Trajectory tracking control for robot manipulators using only position measurements

In the paper, the trajectory tracking control problem is investigated for robotic manipulators which are not equipped with the tachometers. Our contribution consists in establishing uniform asymptotic stability in closed-loop system by using the dynamic position-feedback controller with feedforward. Using Lyapunov vector function and comparison principle, we construct the non-linear controller with variable gain matrices and first-order linear dynamic compensator such that the origin of the closed-loop system is uniformly asymptotically stable. The controller is shown to be robust with respect to parameters incertainties. We illustrate the utility of our result by simulation tests with reference to a two-link planar elbow robot manipulator.
