PD with sliding mode control for trajectory tracking of robotic system P.R Ouyang n, J Acob, V Pano Department of Aerospace Engineering, Ryerson University, Toronto, Canada art ic l e i nf o a b s t r a c t Article history: Received 21 August 2012 Received in revised form August 2013 Accepted 14 September 2013 Available online 22 October 2013 Good tracking performance is very important for trajectory tracking control of robotic systems In this paper, a new model-free control law, called PD with sliding mode control law or PD–SMC in short, is proposed for trajectory tracking control of multi-degree-of-freedom linear translational robotic systems The new control law takes the advantages of the simplicity and easy design of PD control and the robustness of SMC to model uncertainty and parameter fluctuation, and avoid the requirements for known knowledge of the system dynamics associated with SMC The proposed control has the features of linear control provided by PD control and nonlinear control contributed by SMC In the proposed PD–SMC, PD control is used to stabilize the controlled system, while SMC is used to compensate the disturbance and uncertainty and reduce tracking errors dramatically The stability analysis is conducted for the proposed PD–SMC law, and some guidelines for the selection of control parameters for PD–SMC are provided Simulation results prove the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed PD–SMC It is also shown that PD–SMC can achieve very good tracking performances compared to PD control under the uncertainties and varying load conditions

PD/PID control has been widely used in many industrial applications such as robotic control, process control, and automatic control [1–12] PD/PID control is a model-free linear control, and the control gains can be adjusted easily and separately Indeed, a simple linear and decoupled PD/PID controller with appropriate control gains may lead to acceptable tracking performances for many applications It is well known that PD control with desired gravity compensation can guarantee global and asymptotic stability for a point-set tracking problem [1,4] However, such a design relies on prior knowledge of the gravitational loading vector The uncertainty of parameters for a controlled system will affect the final tracking performance of the controlled system Researches on the global stability of trajectory tracking with robotic manipulators under PD control were given in [5–7] Nunes and Hsu [7] proposed a causal PD controller with feedforward terms for the global tracking control of a robot manipulator where the derivative of tracking error was estimated through a lead filter PID control is also applied for tracking control of robotic manipulators [8–11] It was demonstrated [10,11] that a PID tracking control law with a feedforward term can guarantee the semiglobal stability of robotic systems To improve the trajectory tracking performance of robot manipulators,

asymptotical convergence of tracking errors [12–14] Sliding mode control (SMC) [15–18] is one of the advanced controllers that have been developed considerably in robotic areas SMC or variable structure control evolved from the pioneering working in Russia in the early 1960s and has been studied extensively to control nonlinear dynamic systems with modeling uncertainties, time varying parameter fluctuation, and external disturbances [15,16] SMC has been utilized in many different applications such as the design of robust regulators, model-reference systems, adaptive schemes, tracking systems, and state observers SMC was successfully applied to problems such as automatic flight control, control of electric motors, chemical processes, space systems, and robotics The developments and applications of SMC are detailed in some literature reviews [17,18] SMC is characterized as high robustness The sliding mode behavior is insensitive to model uncertainties and disturbances Different types of SMC were proposed [19] to deal with tracking problems One problem associated with SMC is the so-called chattering phenomenon that is high frequency oscillations of the controller output making the trajectories rapidly oscillating about the sliding manifold; another problem is the difficulty in the calculation of what is known as the equivalent control where certain knowledge of the system dynamics is required [15–20] To avoid the calculation of equivalent control in standard SMC is a motivation for the presented research A translational motion system, such as a CNC machine system, is a simple robotic system driven by multiple axes [21–24] In such 190 P.R Ouyang et al / Robotics and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing 30 (2014) 189–200 a robotic system, each axis is driven and controlled separately and follows the command signal produced by the interpolator for the purpose of coordination of the axes One of the main requirements for robotic systems is the good tracking performance of the system, and many control algorithms, such as PD control and SMC, are developed [21–24] Another motivation of this research is to develop a simple and effective control method for translational motion systems A hybrid control scheme that switched between PD control and SMC was proposed in [20] for tracking control of robot manipulators, where PD control is used in the reaching phase and the semicontinuous sliding mode control is applied in the sliding mode phase That study is a start point for our current research A general goal of this current research is to find a simple and easy control law for trajectory tracking performance improvement of robotic systems Considering the popularity and simplicity of PD control in industrial applications, we focus on the combination of PD control and SMC for the application of translational robotic systems, and propose a new control law to deal with trajectory tracking control problems This paper presents a new controller called PD–SMC that combines PD control and SMC for trajectory tracking In the proposed approach, a PD control law is designed to stabilize the nominal model and the SMC is used to provide the robustness and to compensate the uncertainty and disturbance of the controlled system Model-free is a unique feature of the proposed PD–SMC that is distinct from a standard SMC This paper is organized as follows First, the dynamic model and the proposed PD–SMC controller are discussed in Section Then the stability analysis is conducted in Section 3, followed by some simulation verifications for complex shape tracking problems under different conditions in Section Finally, some conclusions are presented in Section denoted as M À N g For positive definite matrices, the following properties [25] will be used in this paper:     If If If If If M g then M À g M Z N g then N À Z M À g M g and λ 40 is a real number, then λM g M g and N g 0, then M þ N g 0, MNM g 0, and

stiffness matrices of the robotic system, respectively X is the axis position vector, F represents the control input force, and D is the combination of friction, disturbance, and model uncertainty that are bounded We define the tracking error vector and its derivatives as follows: > < E ¼ Xd À X E_ ¼ X_ d À X_ ð2Þ > : E€ ¼ X€ À X€ d where X d ; X_ d ; and X€ d are the desired position, velocity, and acceleration vectors, respectively We assume all these vectors are bounded Substituting Eq (2) into Eq (1), the dynamic model can be rewritten in the form of tracking errors as M E€ þ C E_ þ KE ¼ P ÀF Before starting the detailed discussion of the proposed PD–SMC law, the following notations are introduced λm ðM Þ and λM ðMÞ represent the smallest and the largest eigenvalues of a

control forces in the x-axis for both shapes, and Fig 2(b) and (c) shows the tracking errors and the required control forces in the y-axis for the ellipse shape and the eight curve shape, respectively From this figure, we can see that the proposed PD–SMC obtained much better tracking performance than PD control, and a slight better performance than SMC It should be noticed that the SMC control

almost the same for PD–SMC and SMC methods It demonstrated the fast response speed of the PD–SMC with initial error conditions It should be mentioned that a similar conclusion is obtained for the tracking control of an ellipse shape under initial error conditions For this scenario, the standard SMC is better than the PD–SMC in terms of the response speed for correcting the initial errors both SMC and PD–SMC are larger than those controlled by PD control Such a result is anticipated, as much control effort should be paid in order to achieve more accurate tracking performance 4.2 Tracking control with initial errors and disturbances To check the response speed of the proposed PD–SMC with respect to initial errors, simulations are conducted and Fig shows two different initial errors conditions for the eight curve shape tracking where Fig 3(a) is a case of negative initial errors of 0.01 m for both axes while Fig 3(b) is the case of positive initial errors of 0.1 m for both axes From this figure, one can see that both SMC and PD–SMC have very fast responses to overcome the initial errors, while PD control is much slower to correct the initial errors Comparing Fig with the x

both SMC and PD–SMC when the varied conditions are added For the varying conditions, it is clearly shown that the PD–SMC can obtain very good tracking performances, while PD control had much degraded

tracking performance In previous subsections, comparisons of tracking performances are conducted under different conditions based on the same control parameters for all three control methods, and it is demonstrated that the PD–SMC can ensure very small tracking errors in all the situations compared with PD control In this subsection, the effect of control parameters on tracking performances between PD–SMC and standard SMC are examined In the simulations, five different factors to the normal control parameters, which are set as 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, and 5, are considered in the tests to explore

First, we examine the effect of PD control gains on tracking performance for trajectory tracking control of the two considered shapes Different factors of PD control gains, from 0.2 to times of the normal values, are used to control the trajectories Fig shows the comparison results for tracking errors and control forces between PD–SMC and standard SMC From Fig 5, one can see that PD–SMC is slightly superior to the standard SMC for all the selected PD control gains in terms of reducing tracking errors But there is no significant difference for the tracking errors and the control forces under different PD control gain situations It also demonstrates that the conservative condition of Eq (7) for the choice of the PD control gains Even for small control gains where Eq (7) is invalid, the tracking errors are still in a small range Such a result can be explained as follows: the PD control part of the proposed PD–SMC mainly contributed to the normal stabilization of the controlled system, forcing the tracking errors in the boundary layer of the slide surface After entering the boundary layer, the tracking performance is dominantly controlled by the SMC control part 4.4.2 The effect of SMC gain In this simulation, different factors for the SMC gain H are used to check the effects on tracking performances Fig shows the results under five different factor levels From this figure, one can see that the tracking performances did not improve by increasing the SMC gain, rather the required control forces increase dramatically Therefore, a reasonable SMC gain is good for the reduction of the required control forces, and a very high SMC gain is not necessary in terms of the small trajectory tracking errors and limited control forces It also shows that for relatively large SMC gain, the proposed PD–SMC is better than the standard SMC in terms of reducing tracking errors 4.4.3 The effect of boundary layer Boundary layer has some effects on the required control forces Fig shows the tracking performances for different boundary layer situations Generally speaking, the larger the boundary layer, the larger the tracking errors for the PD–SMC, and the smaller the control force for PD–SMC and standard SMC If a large boundary layer is selected, a relatively large tracking error is allowed in the control process, and a smaller and smoother control force is required To balance the tracking error and the control force, a proper choice for the boundary layer is helpful for good tracking performance 4.4.4 The effect of the slope of slide surface In a large range of the slope constant λ of the slide surface, the tracking performances controlled by the PD–SMC is better than the standard SMC, see Fig It is observed that larger control forces are required if a big value of the slope λ is chosen Under the same boundary layer condition, a large value of λ implies that a small value of the velocity error is required; therefore, a large control force is required to push the tracking errors approach to the slide surface Conclusions In this paper, we studied the trajectory tracking control problem of robotic systems and proposed a new PD–SMC control method PD–SMC is a combination of PD control and SMC, having the advantages of linear control and nonlinear control in the sense of simplification and robustness of the control law The proposed PD–SMC control law is an feedback control law that only involves 199 the tracking errors and the derivative of the tracking errors One advantage of the proposed PD–SMC is that it is a model-free control law that is distinct from a standard SMC The simplicity and easy design of the PD–SMC is another advantage compared with a standard SMC Simulation results demonstrated that PD– SMC is superior to PD and as good as a standard SMC in terms of good tracking performance under the uncertainties, disturbances, and varying load conditions Different levels of the control parameters are used to examine the effects on tracking performances From the simulation results, it demonstrated that the proposed PD–SMC is slightly better than a standard SMC in terms of reducing tracking errors in most levels of the factors It also showed that the variations of the PD control gains not have significant effect on the tracking errors and the control forces Such a conclusion came from the nature of the PD control in the proposed PD–SMC, which is used to bring the tracking errors to the boundary layer of the slide surface On the other hand, the SMC parameters have large effects on the tracking errors and especially the required control forces It concluded that a relatively low SMC gain, a smaller slope of the slide surface, and large boundary layer can make the required control forces in small ranges for the proposed PD–SMC From the simulation results, one can see that the control parameters of the PD–SMC have significant and complicated effects on tracking performance and the required control forces Therefore, it is a challenge for the proper selection of control gains when applying the proposed PD–SMC In future work, we will conduct the optimization of control parameters based on the genetic algorithm or particle swarm optimization References [1] Craig JJ Introduction to robotics: mechanics and control Prentice Hall, Boston, USA; 2004 [2] Spong MW, Hutchinson S, Vidyasagar M Robot
