A multi-input multi-output control strategy for intelligent nonholonomic robots

Multiple intelligent mobile robot has vast applications in modern society. Multiple intelligent nonholonomic robots formation control is considered, and the leader-follower formation control system is the multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system. The complexity of multivariable system is generally reflected by the existence of strong coupling. Therefore, in the multi-input mulit-output system, all of the input and output signals are needed to be considered. A MIMO control strategy for robot formation control is designed and implemented in this paper. Simulation experiments are carried out to verify the control performance and effectiveness of the strategy.
