In this paper, we aim to design the trajectory tracking controller for variable curvature duty-cycled rotation flexible needles with a tube-based model predictive control approach. A non-linear model is adopted according to the kinematic characteristics of the flexible needle and a bicycle method. The modeling error is assumed to be an unknown but bounded disturbance. The non-linear model is transformed to a discrete time form for the benefit of predictive controller design. From the application perspective, the flexible needle system states and control inputs are bounded within a robust invariant set when subject to disturbance. Then, the tube-based model predictive control is designed for the system with bounded state vector and inputs. Finally, the simulation experiments are carried out with tube-based model predictive control and proportional integral derivative controller based on the particle swarm optimisation method. The simulation results show that the tube-based model predictive control method is more robust and it leads to much smaller tracking errors in different scenarios.
