Original abstract
A long-standing open problem in robot manipulator control is whether global regulation can be achieved by classical PID control. This paper provides an answer to this question for classical PID controllers with triple parameters (k_p,k_i,k_d) in R^3. We find and prove that for one-degree-of-freedom manipulators, the classical PID control guarantees global stability and asymptotic regulation under standard structural assumptions, and further derive explicit quantitative design conditions for the PID gains. However, for multi-degree-of-freedom cases, we can construct a robot manipulator satisfying the same structural assumptions for which no choice of PID gains (k_p,k_i,k_d) can achieve global asymptotic regulation. These results provide a fundamental understanding of the abovementioned open problem, revealing both the fundamental capability and intrinsic limitation of the classical PID control for robot manipulator dynamics.
