Dynamic yaw and velocity control of the 6WD skid-steering mobile robot RobuROC6 using sliding mode technique

摘要

A robust dynamic feedback controller is designed and implemented, based on the dynamic model of the six-wheel skid-steering RobuROC6 robot, performing high speed turns. The control inputs are respectively the linear velocity and the yaw angle. The main object of this paper is to elaborate a sliding mode controller, proved to be robust enough to ignore the knowledge of the forces within the wheel-soil interaction, in the presence of sliding phenomena and ground level fluctuations. Finally, a 3D simulation is performed with an accurate physical engine to evaluate the efficiency of this designed control law.
