Path and speed planning for smooth autonomous navigation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a path and speed planner for automated vehicles in unstructured environments. A global path planner has been designed with bounded continuous curvature and bounded curvature derivative to ensure smooth driving. This will allow the vehicle to know a priori which is the shortest path within a selected area that guarantees lateral accelerations and steering wheel speeds below given pre-set thresholds. A closed-form speed profiler uses semantic information provided by the path planner to set a continuous velocity reference that takes into account bounds on lateral and longitudinal accelerations consistent with comfort. The suitability of the above two features was compared to manual driving in a real instrumented vehicle on a test track.

Real time navigation of autonomous robot with fuzzy controller and ultrasonic sensors
This paper shows a strategy suitable for navigating autonomous robots in a completely unknown environment. The method proposed combines optimum path planning techniques with fuzzy logic to avoid obstacles and to determine the shortest path towards its goal. The technique computes the potential surface using Dijkstra’s algorithm in a moving window, updating the cost map as it moves with the info...
متن کاملWavefront Propagation and Fuzzy Based Autonomous Navigation
Path planning and obstacle avoidance are the two major issues in any navigation system. Wavefront propagation algorithm, as a good path planner, can be used to determine an optimal path. Obstacle avoidance can be achieved using possibility theory. Combining these two functions enable a robot to autonomously navigate to its destination. This paper presents the approach and results in implementin...
متن کاملA Travel-Time Optimizing Edge Weighting Scheme for Dynamic Re-Planning
The success of autonomous vehicles has made path planning in real, physically grounded environments an increasingly important problem. In environments where speed matters and vehicles must maneuver around obstructions, such as autonomous car navigation in hostile environments, the speed with which real vehicles can traverse a path is often dependent on the sharpness of the corners on the path a...
متن کاملCollision avoidance by a modified least-mean-square-error classification scheme for indoor autonomous land vehicle navigation
In this article, a new collision-avoidance scheme is proposed for autonomous land vehicle (ALV) navigation in indoor corridors. The goal is to conduct indoor collisionfree navigation of a three-wheel ALV among static obstacles with no a priori position information as well as moving obstacles with unknown trajectories. Based on the predicted positions of obstacles, a local collision-free path is...
متن کاملPath Planning, Replanning, and Execution for Autonomous Driving in Urban and Offroad Environments
We present an autonomous driving system that is capable of planning, replanning, and executing paths for driving in urban and offroad environments. For planning, we rely on the E∗ algorithm which computes a smooth navigation function that takes into account traversibility information extracted from laser scans. The path execution algorithm is centered around a kinodynamic controller which follo...
