  • Abstract
    This paper presents kinematic control problem of skid-steering mobile robot using practical smooth and time-varying stabilizer. The stability result is proved using Lyapunov analysis and takes into account both input signal saturation and uncertainty of kinematics. In order to ensure stable motion of the robot the condition of permissible velocities is formulated according to dynamic model and wheel-surface interaction. Theoretical considerations are illustrated by simulation results
