Tracking Control for Wheeled Mobile Robot Based on Delayed Sensor Measurements

Abstract

This paper proposes a novel Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy predictor observer to tackle the problem of the constant and known delay in the measurements. The proposed observer is developed for a trajectory-tracking problem of a wheeled mobile robot where a parallel-distributed compensation control is used to control the robot. The L2-stability of the proposed observer is also proven in the paper. Both, the control and the observer gains are obtained by solving the proposed system of linear matrix inequalities. To illustrate the efficiency of the proposed approach, an experimental comparison with another predictor observer was done.
