In this paper, we investigate a trajectory control problem for Euler-Lagrange systems with unknown quantization on the actuator channel. To address such a challenge, we proposed a quantization-mitigation-based trajectory control method, wherein adaptive control is employed to handle the time-varying input coefficients. We allow the quantized signal to pass through unknown actuator dynamics, which results in the coupled actuator dynamics for Euler-Lagrange systems. It is seen that our method is capable of driving the states of networked Euler-Lagrange systems to the desired ones via Lyapunov’s direct method. In addition, the effectiveness and advantage of our method are validated with a comparison to the existing controller.
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.
