Title: The Application of Noise-Tolerant ZD Design Formula to Robots’ Kinematic Control via Time-Varying Nonlinear Equations Solving
Abstract: Recently, a new formula with noise-tolerant capability has been designed by Zhang et al., and the resultant Zhang dynamics (ZD) models have been developed to solve different types of time-varying problems. Based on previous research, this paper presents and investigates the application of such a noise-tolerant ZD design formula to kinematic control of redundant robot manipulators via time-varying nonlinear equations solving. Specifically, by exploiting this ZD design formula to solve the system of time-varying nonlinear kinematic equations involved in robot control, the redundancy-resolution scheme is established. Such a scheme contains the proportional, integral, and derivative information of the desired Cartesian path of the robot end-effector and can thus be viewed as a nonlinear proportional-integral-derivative controller for redundant robot manipulators. Then, theoretical results are given to show that the redundancy-resolution scheme has the capability of noise suppressing. Simulation results based on a four-link planar robot manipulator and a PA10 robot manipulator with zero, constant, and bounded time-varying noises further substantiate the efficacy and superiority of the redundancy-resolution scheme, and show the application prospect of the noise-tolerant ZD design formula.
