In this study, a model-free adaptive sliding mode control method was developed in combination with the prescribed performance method. On this basis, this study attempted to fulfill the joint position tracking trajectory task for the one-degree of freedom (DOF) upper-limb exoskeleton in passive robot-assisted rehabilitation. The proposed method is capable of addressing the defect of the initial error in the controller design and the application by adopting a tuning function, as compared with other prescribed performance methods. Moreover, the method developed here was not determined by the dynamic model parameters, which merely exploit the input and output data. Theoretically, the stability exhibited by the proposed controller and the tracking performance can be demonstrated. From the experimental results, the root mean square of the tracking error is equal to 1.06 degrees, and the steady-state tracking error converges to 1.91 degrees. These results can verify the expected performance of the developed control method.
