The global fixed-time sliding mode control strategy is designed for the manipulator to achieve global fixed-time trajectory tracking in response to the uncertainty of the system model, the external disturbances, and the saturation of the manipulator actuator. First, aiming at the lumped disturbance caused by system model uncertainty and external disturbance, the adaptive fixed-time sliding mode disturbance observer (AFSMDO) was introduced to eliminate the negative effects of disturbance. The observer parameters can adaptively change with disturbances by designing the adaptive law, improving the accuracy of disturbance estimation. Secondly, the fixed-time sliding surface was introduced to avoid singularity, and the nonsingular fixed-time sliding mode control (NFSMC) design was put in place to ensure the global convergence of the manipulator system. Finally, the fixed time saturation compensator (FTSC) was created for NFSMC to prevent the negative impact of actuator saturation on the manipulator system, effectively reducing system chatter and improving the response speed of the closed-loop system. The fixed-time stability theory and Lyapunov method were exploited to offer a thorough and rigorous theoretical analysis and stability demonstration for the overall control system. Simulation experiments verify that the designed control scheme has excellent control effects and strong practicability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
