About

Liquan Jiang is a leading researcher in mobile robotics, specializing in advanced control systems, autonomous navigation, and localization for four-wheeled steerable and omnidirectional mobile robots. His major contributions lie in developing robust, fault-tolerant, and anti-disturbance control strategies—including fractional-order sliding mode control, supertwisting stabilization, and adaptive model predictive control—that enable robots to operate reliably under harsh terrain, dynamic obstacles, and serious time-varying perturbations. Jiang has also pioneered efficient LiDAR-based global localization methods, such as multiscale/resolution map matching and ambiguity grid mapping, to ensure safe and precise navigation in large-scale, ambiguous manufacturing environments. His highly cited work, including a 2020 paper on coupled fractional-order control (129 citations), demonstrates significant impact on the field. Notably, his research on decoupled fractional supertwisting stabilization and fault-tolerant dynamic control addresses critical challenges in interconnected and redundantly-actuated systems, advancing the practical deployment of mobile manipulators in smart manufacturing. With over 380 total citations across his top ten papers, Jiang’s innovations continue to shape the next generation of autonomous, resilient mobile robots.
