Abstract

The implementation of unmanned intelligent construction on the concrete surfaces of an airport effectively improves construction accuracy and reduces personnel investment. On the basis of three known common tracked vehicle dynamics models, reference trajectory planning and trajectory tracking controller algorithms need to be designed. In this paper, based on the driving characteristics of the tracked vehicle and the requirements of the stepping trajectory, a quartic polynomial trajectory planning algorithm was selected with the stability of the curve as a whole and the end point as the optimization goal, combining the tracked vehicle dynamics model, collision constraints, start–stop constraints and other boundary conditions. The objective function of trajectory planning was designed to effectively plan the reference trajectory of the tracked vehicle’s step-by-step travel. In order to realize accurate trajectory tracking control, a nonlinear model predictive controller with transverse-longitudinal integrated control was designed. To improve the real-time performance of the controller, a linear model predictive controller with horizontal and longitudinal decoupling was designed. MATLAB 2023A and CoppeliaSim V4.5.1 were used to co-simulate the two controller models. The experimental results show that the advantages and disadvantages of the tracked vehicle dynamics model and controller design are verified.
