In the power packet dispatching system, electric power is transferred with information tags attached physically. An application of the system to robots can enable flexible and efficient power management with a dynamically varying powerline connection between power sources and loads. In this paper, a numerical simulation verifies the achievement of a trajectory control of a manipulator by power packets. As a result, it is clarified that a conventional power conversion system at the load side can be replaced by a packet generating system at the source side. This can be a step for new power management inside robots with power packets.
