These \u201cextraordinary\u201d conditions can be classified as variable time delays in communications lines, usage of different robotic systems, component failures and changes in the system parameters during task execution.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title><jats:p>This paper first gives a review of teleoperation systems developed earlier. Later, fault tolerance is proposed for use in teleoperation systems at the processor, actuator, sub\u2010system, and system levels. Position\/force control algorithms are recommended to address stability issues when there is a loss in communications. Various other controls are also introduced to overcome the instability experienced when there is a time delay in the communications line.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>Finally, this work summarizes the teleoperation system architecture and controller design options in terms of a flowchart to help in the conceptual design of such systems.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title><jats:p>The impact of these new designs and algorithms will be to expand the limits and boundaries of teleoperation and a widening of its utilization area. Enhanced operation of these systems will improve system reliability and even encourage their use in more critical and diverse applications.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/01439910610685034","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,9,26]],"date-time":"2006-09-26T05:57:14Z","timestamp":1159250234000},"page":"365-372","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Fault\u2010tolerant teleoperation systems design"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Mehmet","family":"Dede","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sabri","family":"Tosunoglu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2022013120255458700_b11","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Anderson, R.J. and Spong, W.
