Path following control of wheeled mobile robots combining piecewise-affine, linear parameter-varying, and backstepping theories

This thesis presents a novel controller synthesis method for path following of a wheeled mobile robot (WMR). The proposed control method consists of a three-step procedure mixing piecewise-affine (PWA) and linear parameter-varying (LPV) techniques with backstepping. In the first step, two curvature...
