Abstract
The path tracking control problem of a mobile robot with three trailers in backward motion is addressed in this paper. Based on the proposed feedback control law, which can stabilize the orientations of the tractor and trailers on the desired reference angle, a fuzzy controller is designed to track given path. The controller is applicable to line segment path and is stable in backward motion. Numerical simulation experiments are implemented and the results show that the designed controller has excellent performance in backward tracking of line path.
