A detailed approach for a linear Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller and a non-linear controller - Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) is discussed in this paper. By analyzing several mathematical designs for the Skid Steer Mobile Robot (SSMR), the controllers are implemented in an embedded microcontroller - Mbed LPC1768. To verify the controllers, MATLAB-Simulink is used for the simulation of both the controllers involving motors - Maxon RE40. This paper compares between PID and LQR controller along with the performance comparison between Homogenous and Non-Homogenous LQR controllers.
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.
