Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of global output feedback, link position tracking control of robot manipulators. Specifically, a robust, Lyapunov-based controller is designed to ensure that the link position tracking error is globally uniformly ultimately bounded despite the fact that only link position measurements are available in the presence of incomplete model information (i.e., parametric uncertainty and additive bounded disturbances).
