Abstract

The influence of the transportation lag and the classical methods of its correction in a control system for a mobile robot with a differential drive are considered. Such effects as slipping of wheels and surface roughness are demonstrated to restrict the area of applicability of conventional algorithms of time lag correction. A time lag correction method is proposed, which is based on analytical extrapolation and extended Kalman filter. Experimental results confirm the efficiency of the approach proposed.
