Abstract
We apply sensitivity analysis to the design and control of a tendon transmission. With this approach, some prefered values for the system parameters and a feedback compensator can be proposed. The controller has the special characteristic of being designed based on a linear plant using a robust loopshaping technique, yet it compensates also for the nonlinear behavior of the plant, while exhibiting good disturbance rejection and robustness. Experimental results using a test bench are discussed.
