  • Most current studies of adaptive robot control concentrate on parameter convergence in the steady state, while parameter convergence rates are rarely investigated. This paper proposes a least-squares modulated composite learning robot control based on Moore–Penrose pseudoinverse to improve the performance of parameter convergence. In the composite learning, a prediction error is constructed based on online historical data and regressor extension, and both the prediction and tracking errors are applied to update parameter estimates such that accurate and smooth parameter estimation is obtained under a weak excitation condition termed interval excitation (IE). The distinctive features of the proposed method include: (1) Asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system is proven without the IE condition; (2) exponential stability is proven and balanced and easily tunable rates of parameter convergence are achieved under the IE condition, where the rates are independent of unpredictable excitation levels in different regressor channels. These two features are generally not achievable with the existing adaptive robot control methods. Experimental results on an industrial manipulator have demonstrated the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed approach.
