Abstract

This paper proposes a finite-time adaptive backstepping control for an n-link flexible joint manipulator based on neural network approximation. In each recursive step, an adaptive virtual controller or practical controller is designed to guarantee that all the state errors can converge into a small region within a finite time. Besides, two simple neural networks are employed to approximate and compensate for the lumped uncertainties, and the finite time stability analysis is provided based on Lyapunov synthesis. Finally, simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
