Abstract

In this paper we are concerned with control of rigid robots equipped with brushless DC-motors (BLDC) when the electric dynamics of these actuators is taken into account. We show for the first time that a saturated PD controller suffices to achieve global asymptotic stability. Our controller is the simplest controller proposed until now to solve this problem: it only requires position measurements and linear feedback of electric current.
