Abstract
SummaryThis work proposes a smooth time‐varying controller for trajectory tracking and posture regulation problems of car‐like mobile robots (CLMR). Currently, few studies focus on the control problems of CLMR's kinematic model. Global trajectory tracking or global posture stabilization controller for CLMR has not yet been proposed. In this study, we propose a global trajectory tracking controller for CLMR for the first time. By setting a specific reference trajectory, the controller is generalized to the posture stabilization task. Obstacle avoidance is also taken into consideration in posture stabilization task. Unlike the prototypical method of transforming the model into a nonholonomic chained‐form system, the proposed method is designed based on the original tracking error equation. Therefore our approach does not have singularities and has a global attraction region. Furthermore, the global convergence of the proposed controllers is strictly proved using the proof by contradiction and Barbalat's lemma. Finally, simulated and actual experiments on a car‐like robot demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
