Abstract: This paper investigates the decentralized fault tolerant control (DFTC) scheme based on self-tuned local feedback gain to against partial loss of actuator effectiveness of reconfigurable manipulators. Consider the entire system as a set of interconnected subsystems due to its modularity property, the decentralized control method is proposed by employing two neural networks for the system fault-free. For the subsystem suffers to partial loss of actuator effectiveness, the self-tuned local feedback gain is added to the proposed decentralized control method to guarantee the control performance. Finally, a simulation example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the present DFTC scheme. The main contributions of this method are: i) The fault tolerant control structure is simple since it is no need to be redesigned in the presence of partial loss of actuator effectiveness; ii) The actuator fault can be handled in its local subsystem, it implies that the performance degradation of the faulty subsystem can not affect the fault-free subsystems.
