چکیده

In this paper, the problem of determining if a population of mobile robots is able to travel from an initial con guration to a target con guration is addressed. This problem is related with the controllability of the automaton describing the system. To solve the problem, the concept of navigation automaton is introduced, allowing a simpli cation in the analysis of controllability. A set of illustrative examples is presented.

Event-driven Modelling and Control of a Mobile Robot Population

This paper proposes the use of a discrete event system to model the navigation of a homogeneous population of mobile robots moving in an environment composed of a number of discrete sites. We derive results that relate the blocking and controllability properties of the automaton modeling the complete system with the blocking and controllability properties of the smaller dimension automata model...

Navigation of a Mobile Robot Using Virtual Potential Field and Artificial Neural Network

Mobile robot navigation is one of the basic problems in robotics. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for autonomous mobile robot navigation in an unknown environment. The proposed approach is based on learning virtual parallel paths that propel the mobile robot toward the track using a multi-layer, feed-forward neural network. For training, a human operator navigates the mobile robot in ...

Mobile robot wall-following control using a behavior-based fuzzy controller in unknown environments

This paper addresses a behavior-based fuzzy controller (BFC) for mobile robot wall-following control.The wall-following task is usually used to explore an unknown environment.The proposed BFC consists of three sub-fuzzy controllers, including Straight-based Fuzzy Controller (SFC),Left-based Fuzzy Controller (LFC), and Right-based Fuzzy Controller (RFC).The proposed wall-...
