提出一种可保证能量边界的半被动速度场控制,提升机械系统交互安全性与任务性能。
Robust Semi-passive Velocity Field Control with Boundedness Guarantees for Safe Interaction between Mechanical Systems and Physical Environment

- 在能量超标时保持被动性,否则允许非被动行为以提升任务表现
- 即使存在未知扰动,系统能量和状态仍收敛至有界区域
- 可约束系统与环境间功率流动,适合高安全需求的物理交互场景
保证外部力与速度之间能量被动性的控制器可实现机械系统与物理环境的安全交互。然而,仅依赖能量被动性可能限制控制性能,甚至导致任务失败。此外,环境中的外部扰动可能导致系统能量和状态超出运行范围,影响任务执行与安全。本文研究一种鲁棒时变半被动速度场控制方法,旨在以可控方式缓解完全被动控制的过度保守性。所提方法在系统能量超过预设阈值时,保证闭环系统对力-速度输入输出对的被动性;当能量低于该阈值时,允许非被动行为以维持任务性能。同时,证明了在未知扰动下,闭环系统的能量水平和状态仍能收敛至有界域。此外,该方法可约束闭环系统与物理环境间的功率流动,增强交互过程安全性。数值仿真验证了该方法的有效性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Controllers that guarantee energetic passivity with respect to the pair of external force and velocity realize safe interaction between the mechanical system and its physical environment. However, solely adhering to energetic passivity constraints may impose fundamental limitations on control performance and, in some cases, prevent the successful execution of controlled tasks. In addition, external disturbances from the physical environment can drive the system energy level and states beyond operational regions, thereby undermining task performance and safety. In this paper, we study a robust time-varying semi-passive velocity field control to aim to relax the inherently conservative nature of fully passive control methods in a controlled manner. Specifically, the proposed control method guarantees passivity of the closed-loop system with respect to the force-velocity input-output pair when the energy level exceeds a predefined level, while permitting non-passive behaviors to preserve task performance otherwise. Furthermore, the energy level and the states of the closed-loop system are proved to converge to bounded domains even in the presence of unpredicted disturbances. Additionally, the proposed method also enables constraining power flow between the closed-loop system and its physical environment to enhance safety in the interaction process. Numerical simulation examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
