Abstract

A speed consensus control strategy for a six-wheel-drive skid-steering mobile robot was proposed based on a hierarchical controller in a complex environment with unknown disturbances. The effective method of reliable speed consensus control strategy should consider some disturbances, such as the internal-robot assembly error, which including instability of motor control system and external physical interference in robot dynamic system. In this paper, a driving anti-slip control system with PID and the stability control system with sliding mode by variable structure is designed and integrated to elevate the stability of the robot. And, a G-vector control algorithm based on sliding mode control is proposed to reduce the yaw angle as much as possible during the process of differential steering of robots. The effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is verified by an example of a robot.The results show that the method has good control performance in control accuracy and stability.
