Supervisory Fault Adaptive Control of a Mobile Robot and Its Application in Sensor-Fault Accommodation

摘要

A new architecture for fault adaptive control (FAC) of a mobile robot is presented. This architecture is based on the hybrid supervisory control theory. A systematic design procedure for the major components of this architecture is discussed in the context of sensor-fault accommodation by a mobile robot. The FAC architecture is implemented in a mobile robot for laboratory experimentation. Experimental results are provided to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed FAC architecture
