Abstract
Interacting with human operators, remote environment, and communication networks, teleoperation systems are considerably suffering from complexities and uncertainties. Managing these is of paramount importance for safe and smooth performance of teleoperation systems. Among the countless solutions developed by researchers, type-2 fuzzy (T2F) algorithms have shown an outstanding performance in modeling complex systems and tackling uncertainties. Moreover, artificial neural networks (NNs) are well known for their adaptive learning potentials. This article proposes an adaptive interval type-2 fuzzy neural-network control scheme for teleoperation systems with time-varying delays and uncertainties. The T2F models are developed based on the experimental data collected from a teleoperation setup over a local computer network. However, the resulted controller is evaluated on an intercontinental communication network through the Internet between Australia and Scotland. Moreover, the slave robot and the remote workspace are completely different and unforeseen. Stability and performance of the proposed control is analyzed by Lyapunov–Krasovskii method. Comprehensive comparative studies demonstrate that the proposed controller outperforms traditional techniques in experimental evaluations.
