Abstract
This paper presents a decentralized robust optimal control method for modular robot manipulators (MRMs) via a critic-identifier structure-based adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) scheme. The robust control problem of MRMs is transformed into an optimal compensation control issue, which consists of model-based compensation control, identifier-based learning control and ADP-based optimal control. The dynamic model of MRMs is deployed for each joint module where the local dynamic information is utilized to design the model compensation controller. A neural network (NN) identifier is established to approximate the interconnected dynamic coupling. Based on ADP and local online policy iteration algorithm, the Hamiltonian–Jacobi–Bellman equation is solved by constructing a critic NN, and then the approximate optimal control policy derivation is possible. The closed-loop robotic system is asymptotic stable by the implementation of a set of developed decentralized control policies. Simulations are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
