چکیده

This paper presents a method based on the reciprocal root locus (RRL) approach for solving the multiple vehicle path coordination problem. A high level planning assigns the tasks to each vehicle, specifying each mission, inside a structured workspace with known obstacles. The problem is solved in two steps: first the given workspace is mapped onto a semicircle, using the theory of conformal mappings, then the RRL method is applied. Examples involving multiple vehicles illustrate the proposed technique and its effectiveness. Copyright © 2002 IFAC

A Congested Double Path Approach for a Hub Location-allocation Problem with Service Level at Hubs

In this paper an uncapacitated multiple allocation p-hub median problem is discussed. The model minimizes the transportation cost based on inventory service level at hubs through double paths between hubs. Inventory service level is defined as the percent of inventory shortage of vehicles at hubs according to passengers demand and replenishment time of vehicles. A real data from 25 nodes of mun...

Path Planning in Multi-scale Ocean Flows: Coordination and Dynamic Obstacles

As the concurrent use of multiple autonomous vehicles in ocean missions grows, systematic control for their coordinated operation is becoming a necessity. Many ocean vehicles, especially those used in longer–range missions, possess limited operating speeds and are thus sensitive to ocean currents. Yet, the effect of currents on their trajectories is ignored by many coordination techniques. To a...

Coordinated Path-Following in the Presence of Communication Losses and Time Delays

This paper addresses the problem of steering a group of vehicles along given spatial paths while holding a desired time-varying geometrical formation pattern. The solution to this problem, henceforth referred to as the coordinated path-following (CPF) problem, unfolds in two basic steps. First, a path-following (PF) control law is designed to drive each vehicle to its assigned path, with a nomi...

Improving Fast Charging Methods Using Genetic Algorithm and Coordination between Chargers in Fast Charging Station of Electric Vehicles in Order to Optimal Utilization of Power Capacity of Station

Fast charging stations are one of the most important section in smart grids with high penetration of electric vehicles. One of the important issues in fast chargers is choosing the proper method for charging. In this paper, by defining an optimization problem with the objective of reducing the charging time, the optimal charging levels are obtained using a multi-stage current method using a gen...

Coordinated path following control of multiple wheeled robots using linearization techniques

The paper addresses the problem of steering a fleet of wheeled robots along a set of given spatial paths, while keeping a desired inter-vehicle formation pattern. This problem arises for example when multiple vehicles are required to scan a given area in cooperation. In a possible mission scenario, one of the vehicles acts a leader and follows a path accurately, while the other vehicles follow ...
