A New Adaptive Time-Delay Control Scheme for Cable-Driven Manipulators

This paper proposes a new adaptive time-delay control (ATDC) scheme for cable-driven manipulators. The proposed ATDC scheme contains three elements, i.e., time-delay estimation (TDE), injected dynamics, and adaptive laws. The TDE utilizes intentionally time-delayed signals to estimate the unknown system dynamics and brings a fascinating model-free nature. The injected dynamics employ a fractional-...
