Abstract

In this paper, the problem of time varying telecommunication delays in passive teleoperation systems is addressed. The design comprises delayed position, velocity and position-velocity signals with the local position and velocity signals of the master and slave manipulators. Nonlinear adaptive control terms are employed locally to cope with uncertain parameters associated with the gravity loading vector of the master and slave manipulators. Lyapunov-Krasovskii function is employed for three methods to establish asymptotic tracking property of the closed loop teleoperation systems. The stability analysis is derived for both symmetrical and unsymmetrical time varying delays in the forward and backward communication channel that connects the local and remote sites. Finally, evaluation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design for real-time applications.
