Robust Adaptive Tracking Control of a Class of Robot Manipulators with Model Uncertainties

A robust tracking controller for robot manipulators measuring only the angular positions and considering model uncertainties is presented. It is considered that the model is uncertain; that is, the system parameters, nonlinear terms, external perturbations, and the friction effects in each robot joi...
