Summary

In this article, we propose a nonlinear Proportional+Derivative (PD) tracking controller with adaptive Fourier series compensation. The proposed controller uses a regressor-free adaptive scheme that relies on a trigonometric polynomial with varying coefficients to solve the control problem. Asymptotic convergence of the position and velocity errors is proven via a formal stability analysis based on Lyapunov and LaSalle theory for discontinuous systems. The proposed controller is validated on a 2-degrees of freedom robot manipulator. The experimental results validate the theoretically obtained results and reflect the effect of certain parameters in the transient behavior of the error dynamics. Certain robustness properties are also observed.
