  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 3280))

Abstract

Recently, there has been a great deal of interest in intelligent control of robotic manipulators. Artificial neural network (ANN) is a widely used intelligent technique on this way. Using ANN, these controllers learn about the systems to be online controlled by them. In this paper, a neural network controller was designed using traditional generalized predictive control algorithm (GPC). The GPC algorithm, which belongs to a class of digital control methods and known as Model Based Predictive Control, require long computational time and can result in a poor control performance in robot control. Therefore, to reduce the process time, in other words, to avoid from the highly mathematical computational structure of GPC, a neural network was designed for a 3-Joint robot. The performance of the designed control system was shown to be successful using the simulation software, which includes the dynamics and kinematics of the robot model.
