Description

A kind of robot distributed controller and control method
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of robot control, particularly relate to a kind of robot distributed controller and control method.
Background technology
The research of intelligent robot technology has become the main development direction of robot field, such as various precision assembly robots, power/Position Hybrid Control robot, the research etc. of the robot in many limbs coordinated control system and Advanced Manufacturing System.Controller is the core of robot system, accordingly, the performance of robot controller be it is also proposed higher requirement.Along with computer, the development of Theory of Automatic Control and industrial needs and the progress of correlation technique, machine man-based development had been subjected to for 3 generations: (1) programmable teaching-playback robot;(2) control based on sensory has the robot of certain capacity of will;(3) intelligent robot.As the core of robot, robot controller is one of key component affecting robot performance.
From the point of view of the processing mode of robot control algorithm, serial, parallel two kinds of structure types can be divided into.Wherein, serial process structure refers to that the control algolithm of robot is to be processed by serial computer.For such controller, divide from computer configuation, control mode, can be divided into following several:
Single CPU structure, centralized control: the computer realization stronger by function all controls function.Robot in early days just uses this structure, but needs many calculating (such as coordinate transform) during controlling, and the most this control structure speed is slower.
Two grades of CPU structures, master slave control modes: one-level CPU is main frame, take on system administration, robot language compiling and human interface function, also utilize its operational capability to complete coordinate transform, locus interpolation simultaneously, and periodically operation result is delivered to common memory as the increment of joint motions, read for two grades of CPU;It is digital control that two grades of CPU complete whole joint position.Substantially it is not in contact with between two cpu bus of this kind of system, only exchanges data by common memory, be the relation of a loose coupling.It is highly difficult to using the further divergent function of more CPU.
Multi-CPU structure, distributed control mode: at present, commonly used two grades of distributed frames of this upper and lower machine, host computer is responsible for whole system management and kinematic calculation, trajectory planning etc..Slave computer is made up of multi-CPU, and it is the close coupling by bus form that each CPU controls joint motions, these CPU and main control computer contact.The controller operating rate of this structure and control performance significantly improve.But the function distributed frame that the feature that these multi-CPU systems have is both for particular problem and uses, the most each processor undertakes pinned task.The most most of commercialization robot controllers are all this structures at present.
Robot controller is to control robot according to instruction and heat transfer agent to complete the device of certain action or job task, and it is machine human heart, determines the quality of robot performance.Robot is since being born, the controller that particularly industrial robot is used is essentially all what developer's absolute construction based on oneself was developed, and it has a lot of defect: (1) is confined to the enclosed construction of " special-purpose computer, special purpose robot's language, special microprocessor ".The controller architecture closed makes it have specific function, is adapted to specific environment, is not easy to be extended system and improve.(2) software configuration and logical structure thereof depend on processor hardware, it is difficult to transplant between different systems.(3) poor fault tolerance, due to the inherent feature such as the data dependence in parallel computation, communication and synchronization, the fault freedom of controller is deteriorated, and one of them processor is out of order and may cause the paralysis of whole system.(4) autgmentability is poor, and at present, the research of robot controller focuses on that this one-level is to improve the performance of system from joint.Closure due to structure, it is difficult to as required system is extended.
From the point of view of above-mentioned robot controller, its function singleness, and computing capability is poor, it is difficult to ensure that the requirement of control in real time, at present, due to the rapid progress of artificial intelligence, computer science, sensor technology and other related discipline, such robot controller can not meet research and development and the demand of application of current high level robot.Being additionally, since the complexity of robot control algorithm and the in urgent need to be improved of robot control performance, many scholars are from many-sided effort having carried out reducing amount of calculation such as modeling, algorithm, but still are difficult on serial structure controller meet the requirement calculated in real time.
