This paper presents the design of a control model to navigate the
differential mobile robot to reach the desired destination from an arbitrary
initial pose. The designed model is divided into two stages: the state
estimation and the stabilization control. In the state estimation, an extended
Kalman filter is employed to optimally combine the information from the system
dynamics and measurements. Two Lyapunov functions are constructed that allow a
hybrid feedback control law to execute the robot movements. The asymptotical
stability and robustness of the closed loop system are assured. Simulations and
experiments are carried out to validate the effectiveness and applicability of
the proposed approach.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1611.07112,
