Abstract

In this paper, a novel adaptive tracking controller is proposed for mobile robots in presence of wheel slip and external disturbance force based on neural networks with online weight updating laws. The uncertainties due to the wheel slip and external force are compensated online by neural networks in order to achieve the desired tracking performance. The online weight updating laws are modified versions of the backpropagation with an e-modification term added for robustness. The global uniformly ultimately bounded stability of the system to an arbitrarily small neighborhood of the origin is proven using Lyapunov method. The validity of the proposed controller is confirmed by two simulation examples of tracking a straight line and a U-shape trajectory.
