A fixed-time control approach is investigated for the leader-follower formation tracking issue of wheeled mobile robots with prescribed performance. Experimental results demonstrate the validation of the proposed method.
A fixed-time control approach is investigated for the leader-follower formation tracking issue of wheeled mobile robots (WMRs) with prescribed performance in this brief. The nonlinear and underactuated model of the WMR is first transformed into a linear one with uncertainties and external disturbances. Then, a time-varying fixed-time extended state observer is developed to observe the total disturbance. Furthermore, a time-varying fixed-time distributed observer is constructed to estimate the state of the leader. Finally, a novel fixed-time prescribed performance strategy is presented to achieve the formation tracking. Experimental results demonstrate the validation of the proposed method.
