The strategy for the control of vehicle platooning is proposed and tested on different mobile robot platforms. The decentralized platooning is considered, i.e. a virtual train of vehicles where each vehicle is autonomous and decides on its motion based on its own perceptions. The following vehicle o

β¦ Synopsis
This paper presents a new di!erentiable, time-varying controller for the regulation problem for wheeled mobile robots. After the WMR kinematics have been transformed into an advantageous form, a dynamic oscillator, in lieu of explicit cosine or sine terms, is constructed to promulgate a global exponential regulation property for the transformed kinematic model via a Lyapunov-type argument. In order to showcase the di!erentiable nature of the proposed kinematic control structure, we demonstrate how the standard backstepping technique can be applied to obtain a global exponential regulator for an exact dynamic model.

While the nonholonomic robots with no-slipping constraints are studied extensively nowadays, the slipping effect is inevitable in many practical applications and should be considered necessarily to achieve autonomous navigation and control purposes especially in outdoor environments.

The problem of synthesizing a law for the control of the plane motion of a wheeled robot is investigated. The rear wheels are the drive wheels and the front wheels are responsible for the turning of the platform. The aim of the control is to steer a target point to a specified trajectory and to stab
