Abstract
Considering communication delays in networked multi-robot teleoperation systems, this paper proposes a new control strategy for synchronisation and stability purposes. A single-master and multi-slave (SMMS) networked robotic teleoperation system is considered. Based on a sliding surface combined with a smooth filtering and estimation methodology, a robust adaptive control is developed to guarantee the synchronisation and stability of the system in the presence of network-induced time-varying delays. Extensive simulation studies demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed control scheme
