Composite adaptive control schemes, which use both the system tracking errors and the prediction error to drive the update laws, have become widespread in achieving an improvement of system performance. However, a strong persistent-excitation (PE) condition should be satisfied to guarantee the parameter convergence. This paper proposes a novel composite adaptive control to guarantee parameter convergence without PE condition for nonlinear teleoperation systems with dynamic uncertainties and time-varying communication delays. The stability criteria of the closed-loop teleoperation system are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities. New tracking performance measures are proposed to evaluate the position tracking between the master and the slave. Simulation studies are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, bilateral teleoperation of multiple slaves coupled to a single master under scheduling communication is investigated. The sampled-data transmission between the master and the multiple slaves is fulfilled over a delayed communication network, and at each sampling instant, only one slave is allowed to transmit its current information to the master side according to some scheduling protocols. To achieve the master-slave synchronization, Round-Robin scheduling protocol and Try-Once-Discard scheduling protocol are employed, respectively. By designing a scheduling-communication-based controller, some sufficient stability criteria related to the controller gain matrices, sampling intervals, and communication delays are obtained for the closed-loop teleoperation system under Round-Robin and Try-Once-Discard scheduling protocols, respectively. Finally, simulation studies are given to validate the effectiveness of the proposed results.
