Zusammenfassung: | Cooperative tracking control problem of multiple water–land amphibious robots is discussed in this article with consideration of unknown nonlinear dynamics. Firstly, the amphibious robot dynamic model is formulated as an uncoupled nonlinear one in horizontal plane through eliminating relatively small sway velocity of the platform. Then cooperative tracking control algorithm is proposed with a two-stage strategy including dynamic control stage and kinematic control stage. In dynamic control stage, adaptive consensus control algorithm is obtained with estimating nonlinear properties of amphibious robots and velocities of the leader by neural network with unreliable communication links which is always the case in underwater applications. After that, kinematic cooperative controller is presented to guarantee formation stability of multiple water–land amphibious robots system in kinematic control stage. As a result, with the implementation of graph theory and Lyapunov theory, the stability of the formation tracking of multiple water–land amphibious robots system is proved with consideration of jointly connected communication graph. At last, simulations are carried out to prove the effectiveness of the proposed approaches. |
