Abstract
This paper proposes trajectory tracking algorithm for differential drive type of Automatic Guided Vehicle (AGV) system with the unknown wheel radii using adaptive backstepping control method. To guarantee the tracking errors go to zero, backstepping control method is proposed. By choosing appropriate Lyapunov function based on its kinematic modeling, system stability is guaranteed and a control law can be obtained. In this paper, the unknown radii of left and right wheels caused by uneven load distribution or manufacturing imperfection are considered. To solve this problem, an adaptive law is proposed to estimate the changing of wheels radii. The simulation and experimental results show that the proposed controller successfully estimates the unknown parameters and tracks the reference trajectories.Keywordsautomatic guided vehicletrajectory trackingadaptivebackstepping
