This paper studies the tracking control problem for an uncertain n -link robot with full-state constraints. The rigid robotic manipulator is described as a multiinput and multioutput system. Adaptive neural network (NN) control for the robotic system with full-state constraints is designed. In the control design, the adaptive NNs are adopted to handle system uncertainties and disturbances. The Moore-Penrose inverse term is employed in order to prevent the violation of the full-state constraints. A barrier Lyapunov function is used to guarantee the uniform ultimate boundedness of the closed-loop system. The control performance of the closed-loop system is guaranteed by appropriately choosing the design parameters. Simulation studies are performed to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control.
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.
