This study developed an encrypted four-channel bilateral control system that enables posture synchronization and force feedback for leader and follower robot arms. The encrypted bilateral control system communicates encrypted signals and operates with encrypted control parameters using homomorphic encryption. We created two-axis robot arms and identified them to obtain a nonlinear model consisting of a linear system and a nonlinear disturbance. Disturbance and reactionforce observers and a proportional-derivative controller were designed to construct a networked robot-manipulation system. The controllers in the constructed bilateral control system were securely implemented on dedicated computers using a controller encryption technique. The experimental results demonstrate that the developed bilateral control system can facilitate encrypted communication and controller, synchronize the posture, and feed the reaction force back. Through experimental validation, the encrypted four-channel bilateral control system enables the inheritance of control performance from the original (unencrypted) bilateral control system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
