This paper presents a motion control strategy using a fuzzy knowledge based system to tracking control a wheeled mobile manipulator robot. Also the robot modeling is considered in this paper. The proposed control has been designed to track the desired trajectory in the presence of uncertainties. The control scheme consists of four parts; a model-based kinematic control, a fuzzy logic based dynamic control, a decentralized PI control and an adaptive linear control. An advantage of the proposed scheme is simplicity in designing. The stability of control system for asymptotic convergence to the desired trajectory is proven using Lyapunov synthesis. The numerical simulation results show the superiority of the proposed control over a robust adaptive control.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
