Abstract

Balancing path following accuracy and error convergence with graceful motion in steering control is challenging due to the competing nature of these requirements, especially across a range of operating speeds and conditions. This paper demonstrates that an integrated multi-tiered steering controller considering the impact of slip on kinematic control, dynamic control, and steering actuator rate commands achieves accurate and graceful path following. This work is founded on multi-tiered sideslip and yaw-based models, which allow derivation of controllers considering error due to sideslip and the mapping between steering commands and graceful lateral motion. Observer based sideslip estimates are combined with heading error in the kinematic controller to provide feedforward slip compensation. Path following error is compensated by a continuous Variable Structure Controller (VSC) using speed-based path manifolds to balance graceful motion and error convergence. Resulting yaw rate commands are used by a backstepping dynamic controller to generate steering rate commands. A High Gain Observer (HGO) estimates sideslip and yaw rate for output feedback control. Stability analysis of the output feedback controller is provided, and peaking is resolved. The work focuses on lateral control alone so that the steering controller can be combined with other speed controllers. Field results provide comparisons to related approaches demonstrating gracefulness and accuracy in different complex scenarios with varied weather conditions and perturbations.
