Abstract

This document presents a unified movement control scheme for mobile robots, a mobile four-wheel steering robot, which solves the control of the position of points, tracking problems of trajectories and path following. The control problem is solved according to the CLMR-4WS kinematic model. Then, a control scheme of two angular positions and one heading velocity is considered. The stability of the system is shown through the Lyapunov method.
