Practical Stabilization of Uncertain Nonholonomic Mobile Robots Based on Visual Servoing Model with Uncalibrated Camera Parameters
The practical stabilization problem is addressed for a class of uncertain nonholonomic mobile robots with uncalibrated visual parameters. Based on the visual servoing kinematic model, a new switching controller is presented in the presence of parametric uncertainties associated with the camera system. In comparison with existing methods, the new design method is directly used to control the original system without any state or input transformation, which is effective to avoid singularity. Under the proposed control law, it is rigorously proved that all the states of closed-loop system can be stabilized to a prescribed arbitrarily small neighborhood of the zero equilibrium point. Furthermore, this switching control technique can be applied to solve the practical stabilization problem of a kind of mobile robots with uncertain parameters (and angle measurement disturbance) which appeared in some literatures such as Morin et al. (1998), Hespanha et al. (1999), Jiang (2000), and Hong et al. (2005). Finally, the simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed controller design approach
Output-Feedback Nonlinear Model Predictive Control with Iterative State- and Control-Dependent Coefficients
By optimizing the predicted performance over a receding horizon, model
predictive control (MPC) provides the ability to enforce state and control
constraints. The present paper considers an extension of MPC for nonlinear
systems that can be written in pseudo-linear form with state- and
control-dependent coefficients. The main innovation is to apply quadratic
programming iteratively over the horizon, where the predicted state trajectory
is updated based on the updated control sequence. Output-feedback control is
facilitated by using the block-observable canonical form for linear,
time-varying dynamics. This control technique is illustrated on various
numerical examples, including the Kapitza pendulum with slider-crank actuation,
the nonholonomic integrator, the electromagnetically controlled oscillator, and
the triple integrator with control-magnitude saturation.Comment: Submitted to 2024 American Control Conferenc
Robust Adaptive Stabilization of Nonholonomic Mobile Robots with Bounded Disturbances
The stabilization problem of nonholonomic mobile robots with unknown system parameters and environmental disturbances is investigated in this paper. Considering the dynamic model and the kinematic model of mobile robots, the transverse function approach is adopted to construct an additional control parameter, so that the closed-loop system is not underactuated. Then the adaptive backstepping method and the parameter projection technique are applied to design the controller to stabilize the system. At last, simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed controller schemes
Adaptive control of uncertain nonholonomic systems in finite time
summary:In this paper, the finite-time stabilization problem of chained form systems with parametric uncertainties is investigated. A novel switching control strategy is proposed for adaptive finite-time control design with the help of Lyapunov-based method and time-rescaling technique. With the proposed control law, the uncertain closed-loop system under consideration is finite-time stable within a given settling time. An illustrative example is also given to show the effectiveness of the proposed controller
Integral sliding mode control of an extended Heisenberg system
International audienceThis paper deals with the practical robust stabilization and tracking problems of the perturbed multidimensional Heisenberg system with some additional integrators in the control input path. This objective is achieved by the use of variable structure control laws with an integral augmented sliding variable. This note shows how to select the integral sliding surface in such a way that the practical stabilization of the extended Heisenberg system is achieved in spite of the uncertainties and without loss of controllability. Experimental results on a wheeled mobile robot show the performance of the proposed controller for the practical stabilization and tracking problems
Control Of Nonh=holonomic Systems
Many real-world electrical and mechanical systems have velocity-dependent constraints in their dynamic models. For example, car-like robots, unmanned aerial vehicles, autonomous underwater vehicles and hopping robots, etc. Most of these systems can be transformed into a chained form, which is considered as a canonical form of these nonholonomic systems. Hence, study of chained systems ensure their wide applicability. This thesis studied the problem of continuous feed-back control of the chained systems while pursuing inverse optimality and exponential convergence rates, as well as the feed-back stabilization problem under input saturation constraints. These studies are based on global singularity-free state transformations and controls are synthesized from resulting linear systems. Then, the application of optimal motion planning and dynamic tracking control of nonholonomic autonomous underwater vehicles is considered. The obtained trajectories satisfy the boundary conditions and the vehicles\u27 kinematic model, hence it is smooth and feasible. A collision avoidance criteria is set up to handle the dynamic environments. The resulting controls are in closed forms and suitable for real-time implementations. Further, dynamic tracking controls are developed through the Lyapunov second method and back-stepping technique based on a NPS AUV II model. In what follows, the application of cooperative surveillance and formation control of a group of nonholonomic robots is investigated. A designing scheme is proposed to achieves a rigid formation along a circular trajectory or any arbitrary trajectories. The controllers are decentralized and are able to avoid internal and external collisions. Computer simulations are provided to verify the effectiveness of these designs
Dynamic Object Tracking Control for a Non-Holonomic Wheeled Autonomous Robot
[[abstract]]This paper is devoted to design and implement a non-holonomic wheeled mobile robot that possesses dynamic object-tracking capability by using real-time image processing. Two motion control laws are proposed using Lyapunov’s direct method and computed-torque method. Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the developed schemes. The overall experimental setup of the mobile robot developed in this paper is composed of a Windows based personal computer, Programmable Interface Controllers, a mobile robot, and an omni-directional vision system. Finally, the image-based real-time implementation experiments of the mobile robot demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed schemes.[[incitationindex]]EI[[booktype]]紙本[[booktype]]電子
