Abstract

Path following control is of significance to the realization of automated driving. However, the constantly existing uncertainties may cause tracking deviation for autonomous vehicle (AV) during path following process. Motivated by this issue, a path following scheme using modified sliding mode prediction control (SMPC) is proposed for AV. Firstly, a SMPC framework is built, which introduces the prediction process into the approaching process of sliding mode control. Then, a lumped uncertainty term containing parameter fluctuation and external disturbance is added in the prediction process of the SMPC framework. The accurate estimation of lumped uncertainty aforementioned is realized through an extended state observer (ESO). Finally, typical driving maneuvers are performed in simulation to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. Compared with existing methods, the proposed control scheme can improve the tracking accuracy up to 36.3%.
