Title
Adaptive neural network controller of an intelligent commode robot for trajectory tracking
Abstract
An intelligent commode robot with omnidirectional mobility has been developed for the elderly and the disable to improve their life quality. Considering a load change and a shift of the center of gravity due to different users, an adaptive controller based on radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) is designed to track a desired trajectory of the commode robot system. The unknown parameters in dynamics of the system are estimated on-line by the RBFNN. The e1-modification algorithms are used to tune the weights of the RBFNN and a learning rate dependent on time is designed to update the weights to accelerate the training rate of the neural network. Furthermore, a sliding mode control term is selected to compensate estimation errors of the dynamic function and unknown bounded disturbances. For the bounded predefined trajectory, the uniformly ultimately bounded stability of the tracking errors and neural network weight errors has been demonstrated based on the Lyapunov theory. Simulation results showed that the proposed controller can precisely follow the desired trajectory with the load change and the shift of the center of gravity, which will greatly improve the reliability and safety of the commode robot in movement.
