The Design and Simulation for Two-Link Manipulators PD Robust Controller under Uncertain Upper Bound Disturbance

Abstract

PD control method is widely utilized for the dynamic characteristics controlling in industrial robot manipulator area. The disturbance is usually uncertain in reality; the traditional PD controller is limited in that case. In this paper, a PD robust controller is introduced to optimize the convergence and stability of PD controller and avoid the extreme initial driving torque for two-link manipulator system. Using the co-simulation on Matlab/ Simulink and ADAMS, the paper designs a PD robust controller under uncertain upper bound disturbance and completes track control and driving torque simulation trial. The superiority of the two-link manipulators PD robust controller is verified through result comparison and analysis.
