Intelligent controllers for velocity tracking of two wheeled inverted pendulum mobile robot
Velocity tracking is one of the important objectives of vehicle, machines and mobile robots. A two wheeled inverted pendulum (TWIP) is a class of mobile robot that is open loop unstable with high nonlinearities which makes it difficult to control its velocity because of its nature of pitch falling if left unattended. In this work, three soft computing techniques were proposed to track a desired velocity of the TWIP. Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC), Neural Network Inverse Model control (NN) and an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) were designed and simulated on the TWIP model. All the three controllers have shown practically good performance in tracking the desired speed and keeping the robot in upright position and ANFIS has shown slightly better performance than FLC, while NN consumes more energy
A Two-Wheeled Vehicle Navigation System Based on a Fuzzy Logic Controller
The paper deals with a two-wheeled vehicle,namely ESG-2 (Extended Segway-like Generation- 2) navigation control system using a fuzzy logic controller. The vehicle employs two wheels left and right independently which are controlled independently using a fuzzy logic controller respectively. The controllers deal with a compact and implementable application for the normal using with a person (human with 60kg weight in average)
loaded on the vehicle. A modified infrared-based range sensor system is applied to the vehicle as a tilt sensor and it is incorporated with an accelerometer to control its response in case of the dynamics disturbances. The
fuzzy controller runs in tilt-mode while a reference tilt using a potentiometer (as steer system) is taken into account for navigating the vehicle. From the simulation using MATLAB @ and experiments it is obvious that the prototype of ESG-2 is quite challenging to be developed in the future
Effect of Dynamics Loading on a PID controlled Two Wheeled Vehicle of Wheelchair Based Inverted Pendulum
This paper present a simulation investigastion of a
PID-controlled Two-Wheeled Vehicle (Wheelchair-based
Inverted Pendulum) namely ESG2 (EEPIS Segway
Generation 2) with a variety of loading between 10 to
100 kg. this represents the effects of changing the weight
of driver that ride on the vehicle although the control
applied is a PID (proportional-integral-derivative)
method with only one tuning process. The simulation
result show the simple application that can be run in the
real implementation. This is proofed in the experiments
also expose that the control will be more stable when the
weight of driver is heavier with some limitation of
simulation of maximum loading
The generation of dual wavelength pulse fiber laser using fiber bragg grating
A stable simple generation of dual wavelength pulse fiber laser on experimental method is proposed and demonstrated by using Figure eight circuit diagram. The generation of dual wavelength pulse fiber laser was proposed using fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) with two different central wavelengths which are 1550 nm and 1560 nm. At 600 mA (27.78 dBm) of laser diode, the stability of dual wavelength pulse fiber laser appears on 1550 nm and 1560 nm with the respective peak powers of -54.03 dBm and -58.00 dBm. The wavelength spacing of the spectrum is about 10 nm while the signal noise to ratio (SNR) for both peaks are about 8.23 dBm and 9.67 dBm. In addition, the repetition rate is 2.878 MHz with corresponding pulse spacing of about 0.5 μs, is recorded
