Synergic algorithms for the planning and the intelligent following of a trajectory for non-holonomic vehicles

2008

Although there are many studies about two wheels non-holonomic vehicles, in order to simplify the problem the planning and the following of trajectories or paths are generally considered two different phases. In this paper, two algorithms for the synergic working of trajectory planning with intelligent trajectory following are presented. The "trajectory shape" characteristics obtained in the planning phase are used for the efficient trajectory following. From the shape, in order to follow the trajectory, an intelligent controller calculates, without further elaboration, the reference wheels velocity of the vehicle. The knowledge of trajectory shape characteristics and curvature constraints …
