To address such a challenge, we proposed a quantization-mitigation-based trajectory control method, wherein adaptive control is employed to handle the time-varying input coefficients. We allow the quantized signal to pass through unknown actuator dynamics, which results in the coupled actuator dynamics for Euler-Lagrange systems. It is seen that our method is capable of driving the states of networked Euler-Lagrange systems to the desired ones via Lyapunov\u2019s direct method. In addition, the effectiveness and advantage of our method are validated with a comparison to the existing controller.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s20143974","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,17]],"date-time":"2020-07-17T10:22:02Z","timestamp":1594981322000},"page":"3974","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Quantization-Mitigation-Based Trajectory Control for Euler-Lagrange Systems with Unknown Actuator Dynamics"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Yi","family":"Lyu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China Zhongshan Institute, Zhongshan 528400, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qiyu","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Automation, Guangdong University of Technology, Guangdong Key Laboratory of IoT Information Technology, Guangzhou 510006, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Patrik","family":"Kolaric","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UTA Research Institute, The University of Texas at Arlington, Fort Worth, TX 76118, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"101","DOI":"10.3724\/SP.J.1004.2013.00101","article-title":"Survey of recent progress in networked control systems","volume":"39","author":"You","year":"2013","journal-title":"Acta Autom.
