joints and allows simple controllers to be designed for each DOF。

and compensation (Bona & Indri, 2005; Sawut, Umeda, Park, Hanamoto, & Tsuji, 2001)。 In Mohammadi, Marquez, and Tavakoli (2011), the authors proposed a nonlinear disturbance observer- based control law that guaranteed asymptotic trajectory and dis-
turbance tracking in the presence of slow-varying disturbances。
One important aspect of disturbance observer-based friction
compensation schemes is in that they are not based on any particular friction models (Bona & Indri, 2005)。 Disturbance observers have recently been used in time-delayed bilateral
teleoperation in order to improve the transparency of telerobotic systems (Natori, Tsuji, & Ohnishi, 2006); (Natori, Kubo, & Ohnishi, 2007); (Natori, Tsuji, Ohnishi, Hace, & Jezernik, 2010)。 In time- delayed teleoperation, the delayed position/force signals are received from the communication channel in the master and the slave sides。 The time-delayed position/force signals are then added to the output of the disturbance observer in order to provide the master and the slave robots with estimation of the undelayed versions of the position/force signals and thus improve the teleoperation system transparency (Natori et al。, 2010)。 In Mohammadi, Tavakoli, and Marquez (2011), the authors imple- mented a pair of nonlinear disturbance observers in a 4-channel bilateral teleoperation architecture to achieve full transparency in the absence of communication time delays in both free and constrained motions。 In that work, however, the availability of joint acceleration measurements, which is necessary for achieving full transparency, simplified design of disturbance observers。
Besides disturbance rejection, disturbance observers have
found applications in other robotic contexts。 In many robotic applications, the robot end-effector comes in contact with a 机器人的非线性扰动观测器设计英文文献和中文翻译(2):http://www.youerw.com/fanyi/lunwen_89868.html
