Title
New Joint-Drift-Free Scheme Aided with Projected ZNN for Motion Generation of Redundant Robot Manipulators Perturbed by Disturbances
Abstract
Joint-drift problems could result in failures in executing task or even damage robots in actual applications and different schemes have been presented to deal with such a knotty problem. However, in these existing schemes, there exists the coupling in coefficients for eliminating the drift in the joint space and the equality constraint for completing the given task in the Cartesian space, thereby, theoretically, leading to a paradox in achieving zero joint drift in the joint space and zero position error in the Cartesian space simultaneously. A novel joint-drift-free (JDF) scheme synthesized by a projected zeroing neural network (PZNN) model for the motion generation and control of redundant robot manipulators perturbed by disturbances is proposed and analyzed in this article. Besides, the PZNN model could adopt saturated or even nonconvex projection functions. The proposed scheme completely decouples the interferences of joint errors in the joint space and position errors in the Cartesian space for the first time. Beyond that, theoretical analysis is conducted in order to validate that the PZNN model is of global convergence to the theoretical kinematics solution to the motion generation of robots, and that the joint-drift problems are thus remedied. Moreover, several simulations and physical experiments on the strength of different robot manipulators are carried out to confirm the superiority, efficiency, and accuracy of the proposed JDF scheme synthesized by the PZNN model for remedying joint-drift problems of redundant robot manipulators in noisy environments.
