Abstract
AbstractIn this paper, we deal with nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots (WMR) modeled as uncertain nonlinear systems. Sources of uncertainties can be due to erroneous estimation of mass, inertia, and center of gravity and due to payload time‐varying. They also can be considered as external disturbances generated from unstructured environments. We are proposing the use of a robust linear quadratic regulator (RLQR) to deal with tracking problems of WMR. In order to guarantee the effectiveness of this control approach, the robot posture is measured through a high‐precision motion capture system. This RLQR encompasses in a unified framework all state and output uncertain parameters of the system and does not depend on any auxiliary parameter to be tuned. It is useful to be used in online applications. Experimental results are presented with a comparative study among the R‐LQR, the nonlinear control via game theory, and the standard proportional‐derivative controller plus computed torque (PD+CT).
