The problem of stability of the plane motion of mobile robots, including those with walking propulsion devices, is considered. Two modes of propulsion devices are compared: "pushing" and "pulling". The solution of two model problems on the plane motion of a solid body caused by kinematic and force action is presented.

The control of mobile robotic systems with input constraints is still a remarkable problem for many applications. This paper studies the model predictive control-based kinematic control scheme after implementing the decoupling technique of wheeled mobile robots (WMRs). This method enables us to obtain the easier optimization problem with fixed initial state. The finite horizon in cost function of model predictive control (MPC) algorithm requires the appropriate terminal controller as well as the equivalent terminal region. The stability of MPC is determined by feasible control sequence. Finally, offline simulation results validate that the computation load is significantly reduced and also validate trajectory tracking control effectiveness of our proposed control scheme.

A dynamics controller design method based on characteristic model is proposed for the formation control problem of car-like mobile robots. Only kinematics controller is not enough for some cases such as the environment is rugged, and the dynamics parameters of the robot are time-varying. Simulation results show that the proposed method can improve the responding speed of the mobile robots and maintain high formation accuracy. First, we obtain the kinematic error state equations according to the leader-follower method. A kinematics controller is designed and the stability is proved by Lyapunov theory. Then the characteristic model of the dynamics inner loop is established. A sliding mode controller is designed based on the second order discrete model, and the stability of the closed-loop system is analyzed. Finally, simulations are designed in MATLAB and Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio 4 (MRDS) to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

SUMMARYThis paper proposes a control scheme applied to the delayed bilateral teleoperation of mobile robots with force feedback in face of asymmetric and time-varying delays. The scheme is managed by a velocity PD-like control plus impedance and a force feedback based on damping and synchronization error. A fictitious force, depending on the robot motion and its environment, is used to avoid possible collisions. In addition, the stability of the system is analyzed from which simple conditions for the control parameters are established in order to assure stability. Finally, the performance of the delayed teleoperation system is shown through experiments where a human operator drives a mobile robot.

SUMMARYThis paper presents a continuous wall-following controller for wheeled mobile robots based on odometry and distance information. The reference for this controller is the desired distance from the robot to the wall and allows the robot to follow straight wall contour as well as smoothly varying wall contours by including the curvature of the wall into the controller. The asymptotic stability of the control system is proved using a Lyapunov analysis. The controller is designed so as to avoid saturation of the angular velocity command to the robot. A novel switching scheme is also proposed that allows the robot to follow discontinuous contours allowing the robotic system to deal with typical problems of continuous wall-following controllers such as open corners and possible collisions. This strategy overcomes these instances by switching between dedicated behavior-based controllers. The stability of the switching control system is discussed by considering Lyapunov concepts. The proposed control systems are verified experimentally in laboratory and office environments to show the feasibility and good performance of the control algorithms.

A supervisory control framework for a team of mobile robots to accomplish a given task in the presence of system faults is presented in this paper. The supervisor, which contains the upper-level switching logic, coordinates a set of lower-level controllers to accomplish a task. The stability analysis of both the lower-level controllers and the internal dynamics associated with them are presented. A switching scheme that satisfies the input constraints and guarantees the stability of the overall system is developed. Results from a leader-follower task with a two-robot team are presented. In this task, the follower becomes the leader when the leader develops a fault by using three lower-level controllers and a switching logic that guarantees stability of the entire operation.

This paper aims to present special issues concerning the analysis of mobile robots with kinematic motion effects on the stability study. In the analysis, the authors used inverse kinematics, which enables rapid modeling and identifying solutions as regards the stability of bipedal robots. The symbolic solution for kinematics equations of biped robots is of great importance for the efficient controllability of these robots.
