Abstract

In this paper; Proportional-Integral-Derivative Control, Fuzzy Logic and Integral Control,
Sliding Mode Control algorithms are examined for trajectory control of 2 Degrees-of-Freedom
(DOF) Planar Robot Manipulator (PRM). Firstly, conceptual model of the 2-DOF PRM is
designed by using 3-dimensional design software. Subsequently, the actual mechanical
architecture of 2-DOF PRM is constructed with imperfect transmission system.
Kinematics/dynamics equations and control algorithms of the planar robot manipulator are
embedded to the digital signal processor by using Matlab/Simulink toolbox. Afterwards, the
parameters of control methods are tuned by using Partical Swarm Optimization (PSO). Four
different experiments are carried out by using the same circular Cartesian trajectory in order to
test the robustness of the control algorithms. Finally, the comparison results of the control
algorithms obtained from the actual mechanism of the 2-DOF PRM are presented and
discussed.
