Abstract

In this paper, the distributed tracking problem for multiple nonholonomic mobile
robots is investigated, in which the nonholonomic models are transformed into chained-form systems. By utilizing the dynamic oscillator strategy, the distributed controllers are constructed such that all the mobile robots' trajectories converge to the desired reference asymptotically. One advantage of the chained-form system solution that we propose is that it requires no other variable transformations, which could help reducing the system's complexity and broadening the proposed controller's practical applications. Simulations are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithms.
