Adaptive Fuzzy Velocity Field Control for Navigation of Nonholonomic Mobile Robots

Journal of Intelligent & Robotic Systems Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

This paper presents a novel contour tracking scheme based on a well-posed kinematic representation of differential-driven nonholonomic mobile robots. Firstly, a fuzzy aggregation of spatial sets in cluttered environments allows designing a velocity field to encode the desired velocity vector pointing to the target (the contour). Thus, the resultant smooth trajectory avoids obstacles by combining spatially distributed velocity fields that enable the robot navigation. Finally, the universal approximation property of fuzzy systems facilitates the design of an adaptive PI-like controller, whose closed-loop stability leads to the precise tracking of the velocity field. The results of the performed numerical simulations illustrate the reliability of the proposed scheme.
