  • Abstract
    The problem of tracking a desired trajectory with a robot whose parameters are inaccurately known and whose joint velocities are not accessible to the measurement is considered. A smooth nonlinear observer-controller is proposed, and it is shown that, if the uncertainties are within certain bounds, it is possible to guarantee the uniform boundedness and uniform ultimate boundedness of both observation and tracking error
