Velocity Constraint

This article mainly considers the problem of trajectory tracking control problem of quad-rotor system with velocity constrain under the consideration of safety. A model-based nonlinear controller is proposed which can guarantee not only the asymptotical stability for control system but also the velocity under a safe range. Firstly, based on backstepping design, a position tracking controller with velocity constraint is proposed to ensure that the desired position can be tracked with velocity constrains. At the second step, considering attitude subsystem, an attitude controller is proposed to improve the attitude dynamic response performance. Finally, the validity and superiority of the design has been verified in simulation results.

Constraint Approach

The dynamic modeling and trajectory tracking control of a mobile robot is handled by a hierarchical constraint approach in this study. When the wheeled mobile robot with complex generalized coordinates has structural constraints and motion constraints, the number of constraints is large and the properties of them are different. Therefore, it is difficult to get the dynamic model and trajectory tracking control force of the wheeled mobile robot at the same time. To solve the aforementioned problem, a creative hierarchical constraint approach based on the Udwadia–Kalaba theory is proposed. In this approach, constraints are classified into two levels, structural constraints are the first level and motion constraints are the second level. In the second level constraint, arbitrary initial conditions may cause the trajectory to diverge. Thus, we propose the asymptotic convergence criterion to deal with it. Then, the analytical dynamic equation and trajectory tracking control force of the wheeled mobile robot can be obtained simultaneously. To verify the effectiveness and accuracy of this methodology, a numerical simulation of a three-wheeled mobile robot is carried out.
