针对机器人的姿态角难以精确测量的困难,本文研究基于位置测量的轮式移动机器人的轨迹跟踪问题.首先提出一种利用机器人的位置信息估计其姿态角的降维状态观测器,当机器人的线速度严格大于零时,可保证姿态角观测误差的指数收敛.然后给出一种新的状态反馈轨迹跟踪控制律,当参考轨迹满足一定的激励条件时,可以保证机器人的线速度严格大于零且跟踪误差全局渐近收敛.进一步结合姿态角观测器和状态反馈控制律,得到一种输出反馈轨迹跟踪控制算法.理论分析表明,当参考轨迹满足一定的激励条件时,所提出的输出反馈控制算法可以保证跟踪误差的全局渐近收敛.最后对所提出的姿态角观测器、状态反馈和输出反馈轨迹跟踪控制算法进行了仿真验证,证实了算法的有效性,并且当存在位置测量误差时,所提出的输出反馈轨迹跟踪控制算法仍可以保证机器人对参考轨迹的实际跟踪.     

离轴式拖车移动机器人的任意路径跟踪控制

离轴式拖车移动机器人属于非完整系统,当车头线速度随时间变化且过零变号时,难以用一个控制器实现系统对期望路径的跟踪.本文研究离轴式拖车移动机器人系统的任意路径跟踪问题.首先由系统和虚拟小车的运动学方程得到误差状态模型,线性化后用坐标变换将其化为标准型,然后基于Lyapunov方法构造出一种跟踪控制律.只要车头的运动线速度有界且不趋于零,其导数有界,则所设计的控制律就可以保证系统跟踪任意的期望路径,且跟踪误差最终一致有界,最终界的大小与期望路径的曲率变化率成比例.当期望路径的曲率变化率为零或趋于零时,所设计的控制律可以保证拖车移动机器人指数收敛到期望路径.仿真结果证实了控制律的有效性.

Finite‐time tracking control of uncertain nonholonomic systems by state and output feedback

This paper studies the finite‐time tracking control of nonholonomic systems in chained form with parameter uncertainties, unknown output gains, and mismatched uncertainties. To achieve the finite‐time tracking control of uncertain nonholonomic systems, we propose 2 types of controllers by state and output feedback, respectively. Both of the proposed 2 types of controllers can achieve the finite‐time output tracking control of the nonholonomic systems even in the presence of mismatched uncertainties and/or unknown gains. The effectiveness of our proposed controllers are illustrated with simulation examples.     

Global 𝒦-exponential trackers for nonholonomic chained-form systems based on LMI

Global 𝒦-exponential controllers are constructed for the tracking control problem of nonholonomic systems in chained form. Compared to previously published papers, a difference is that the reference targets are allowed to converge to a point exponentially. By using a novel transformation and the cascade-design method, the tracking control problem is converted into a stabilisation problem composed of two simple subsystems. Then the LMI-design approach is developed for the stabilising one of the above two subsystems. Assumptions on the reference signal is much more relaxed than our previous papers. A peculiar character of the presented methodology is that global 𝒦-exponential tracking can be successfully obtained for nonholonomic chained-form systems without the popular condition of persistent excitation or not converging to zero. Simulation results on a unicycle mobile robot and an articulated vehicle are presented to show the validity of the proposed strategy.     

Stabilization of uncertain chained nonholonomic systems using adaptive output feedback

In this paper, adaptive output feedback control is presented to solve the stabilization problem of nonholonomic systems in chained form with strong nonlinear drifts and uncertain parameters using output signals only. The objective is to design adaptive nonlinear output feedback laws which can steer the closed‐loop systems to globally converge to the origin, while the estimated parameters remain bounded. The proposed systematic strategy combines input‐state scaling with backstepping technique. Motivated from a special case, adaptive output feedback controllers are proposed for a class of uncertain chained systems. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controllers. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley and Sons Asia Pte Ltd and Chinese Automatic Control Society     

A recursive technique for tracking control of nonholonomic systemsin chained form

The authors address the tracking problem for a class of nonholonomic chained form control systems. A recursive technique is proposed which appears to be an extension of the currently popular integrator backstepping idea to the tracking of nonholonomic control systems. Conditions are given under which the problems of semiglobal tracking and global path-following are solved for a nonholonomic system in chained form and its dynamic extension. Results on local exponential tracking are also obtained. Two physical examples of an articulated vehicle and a knife edge are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm through simulations     

Time‐varying linear controllers for exponential tracking of non‐holonomic systems in chained form

In this paper, the authors address the tracking problem for non‐holonomic systems in chained form with target signals that may exponentially decay to zero. By introducing a time‐varying co‐ordinate transformation and using the cascade‐design approach, smooth time‐varying controllers are constructed, which render the tracking‐error dynamics globally ??‐exponentially stable. The result shows that the popular condition of persistent excitation or not converging to zero for the reference signals is not necessary even for the globally ??‐exponential tracking of the chained‐form system. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is validated by simulation of two benchmark mechanical systems under non‐holonomic constraints. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Consensus of multiple nonholonomic chained form systems

Consensus problems of multiple nonholonomic systems are considered in this paper. This problem is simplified into consensus problems of two subsystems based on the cascaded structure of nonholonomic chained form systems. Continuous and hybrid distributed controllers have been constructed for these two subsystems respectively based on the theory of cascaded systems. Consensus of multiple nonholonomic chained form systems can be realized using the methodology proposed in this paper no matter whether the group reference signal is persistently exciting or not. Different to previous assumptions on group reference such as persistent excitation or converging to nonzero constant, the condition on the group reference signal have been further relaxed in this paper. Simulation results using Matlab have illustrated the effectiveness of the results presented in this paper.     

Distributed tracking control of networked chained systems

This paper considers distributed tracking control of multiple nonholonomic chained systems using neighbours’ information. With the aid of the cascade structure of each system and properties of persistently excited signals, distributed state feedback tracking controllers and distributed output feedback tracking controllers are proposed such that the tracking errors exponentially converge to zero. To show applications of the proposed results, formation control of wheeled mobile robots is considered. Distributed controllers are obtained with the aid of the proposed theorems. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed results.     

一类非完整系统的全局镇定

当非完整系统只能局部转换为链式形式时, 由于存在变换奇异点集合, 针对链式系统所设计的全局反馈控制律只能局部镇定原非完整系统, 而且当期望状态接近奇异点时, 闭环系统的吸引区很小. 本文针对一类可局部转换为链式系统的非完整系统, 首先利用吸引区是状态空间中的一个不变集且与变换奇异点集不相交的条件导出了一个吸引区的不变子集, 然后给出了将系统状态从任意点驱动到吸引区不变子集内的开环控制算法, 最后结合开环控制和闭环控制得到一种混合控制算法. 该混合控制算法可以保证任意不在变换奇异点集合内的期望状态是全局渐近稳定的. 对平面两转动关节空间机器人的仿真结果证实了算法的有效性.
