The proposed MPC framework guarantees the finite-time convergence property by assigning the control horizon equal to the dimension of the overall system, and only penalizing the terminal cost in the optimization, where the stage costs are not penalized explicitly. A terminal inequality constraint is added to guarantee the feasibility and stability of the closed-loop system.Initial feasibility can be improved via augmentation. The finite-time convergence of the proposed MPC is proved theoretically,and is supported by simulation examples.展开更多

From a methodological point of view, the problem of interest consists of formally characterizing vehicle state trajectory tubes by means of routing decisions complying with traffic congestion criteria. To this end, a novel distributed control architecture is conceived by taking advantage of two methodologies: deep reinforcement learning and model predictive control. On one hand, the routing decisions are obtained by using a distributed reinforcement learning algorithm that exploits available traffic data at each road junction. On the other hand, a bank of model predictive controllers is in charge of computing the more adequate control action for each involved vehicle. Such tasks are here combined into a single framework:the deep reinforcement learning output(action) is translated into a set-point to be tracked by the model predictive controller;conversely, the current vehicle position, resulting from the application of the control move, is exploited by the deep reinforcement learning unit for improving its reliability. The main novelty of the proposed solution lies in its hybrid nature: on one hand it fully exploits deep reinforcement learning capabilities for decisionmaking purposes;on the other hand, time-varying hard constraints are always satisfied during the dynamical platoon evolution imposed by the computed routing decisions. To efficiently evaluate the performance of the proposed control architecture, a co-design procedure, involving the SUMO and MATLAB platforms, is implemented so that complex operating environments can be used, and the information coming from road maps(links,junctions, obstacles, semaphores, etc.) and vehicle state trajectories can be shared and exchanged. Finally by considering as operating scenario a real entire city block and a platoon of eleven vehicles described by double-integrator models, several simulations have been performed with the aim to put in light the main f eatures of the proposed approach. Moreover, it is important to underline that in different operating scenarios the proposed reinforcement learning scheme is capable of significantly reducing traffic congestion phenomena when compared with well-reputed competitors.展开更多

文摘Obstacle detection and platoon control for mixed traffic flows,comprising human-driven vehicles(HDVs)and connected and autonomous vehicles(CAVs),face challenges from uncertain disturbances,such as sensor faults,inaccurate driver operations,and mismatched model errors.Furthermore,misleading sensing information or malicious attacks in vehicular wireless networks can jeopardize CAVs’perception and platoon safety.In this paper,we develop a two-dimensional robust control method for a mixed platoon,including a single leading CAV and multiple following HDVs that incorpo-rate robust information sensing and platoon control.To effectively detect and locate unknown obstacles ahead of the leading CAV,we propose a cooperative vehicle-infrastructure sensing scheme and integrate it with an adaptive model predictive control scheme for the leading CAV.This sensing scheme fuses information from multiple nodes while suppressing malicious data from attackers to enhance robustness and attack resilience in a distributed and adaptive manner.Additionally,we propose a distributed car-following control scheme with robustness to guarantee the following HDVs,considering uncertain disturbances.We also provide theoretical proof of the string stability under this control framework.Finally,extensive simulations are conducted to validate our approach.The simulation results demonstrate that our method can effectively filter out misleading sensing information from malicious attackers,significantly reduce the mean-square deviation in obstacle sensing,and approach the theoretical error lower bound.Moreover,the proposed control method successfully achieves obstacle avoidance for the mixed platoon while ensuring stability and robustness in the face of external attacks and uncertain disturbances.

文摘The goal of this paper is to develop a unified online motion generation scheme for quadruped lateral-sequence walk and trot gaits based on a linear model predictive control formulation.Specifically,the dynamics of the linear pendulum model is formulated over a predictive horizon by dimensional analysis.Through gait pattern conversion,the lateral-sequence walk and trot gaits of the quadruped can be regarded as unified biped gaits,allowing the dynamics of the linear inverted pendulum model to serve quadruped motion generation.In addition,a simple linearization of the center of pressure constraints for these quadruped gaits is developed for linear model predictive control problem.Furthermore,the motion generation problem can be solved online by quadratic programming with foothold adaptation.It is demonstrated that the proposed unified scheme can generate stable locomotion online for quadruped lateral-sequence walk and trot gaits,both in simulation and on hardware.The results show significant performance improvements compared to previous work.Moreover,the results also suggest the linearly simplified scheme has the ability to robustness against unexpected disturbances.

文摘A distributionally robust model predictive control(DRMPC)scheme is proposed based on neural network(NN)modeling to achieve the trajectory tracking control of robot manipulators with state and control torque constraints.First,an NN is used to fit the motion data of robot manipulators for data-driven dynamic modeling,converting it into a linear prediction model through gradients.Then,by statistically analyzing the stochastic characteristics of the NN modeling errors,a distributionally robust model predictive controller is designed based on the chance constraints,and the optimization problem is transformed into a tractable quadratic programming(QP)problem under the distributionally robust optimization(DRO)framework.The recursive feasibility and convergence of the proposed algorithm are proven.Finally,the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified through numerical simulation.

文摘In this paper, a model predictive control(MPC)framework is proposed for finite-time stabilization of linear and nonlinear discrete-time systems subject to state and control constraints. The proposed MPC framework guarantees the finite-time convergence property by assigning the control horizon equal to the dimension of the overall system, and only penalizing the terminal cost in the optimization, where the stage costs are not penalized explicitly. A terminal inequality constraint is added to guarantee the feasibility and stability of the closed-loop system.Initial feasibility can be improved via augmentation. The finite-time convergence of the proposed MPC is proved theoretically,and is supported by simulation examples.
文摘In this paper, platoons of autonomous vehicles operating in urban road networks are considered. From a methodological point of view, the problem of interest consists of formally characterizing vehicle state trajectory tubes by means of routing decisions complying with traffic congestion criteria. To this end, a novel distributed control architecture is conceived by taking advantage of two methodologies: deep reinforcement learning and model predictive control. On one hand, the routing decisions are obtained by using a distributed reinforcement learning algorithm that exploits available traffic data at each road junction. On the other hand, a bank of model predictive controllers is in charge of computing the more adequate control action for each involved vehicle. Such tasks are here combined into a single framework:the deep reinforcement learning output(action) is translated into a set-point to be tracked by the model predictive controller;conversely, the current vehicle position, resulting from the application of the control move, is exploited by the deep reinforcement learning unit for improving its reliability. The main novelty of the proposed solution lies in its hybrid nature: on one hand it fully exploits deep reinforcement learning capabilities for decisionmaking purposes;on the other hand, time-varying hard constraints are always satisfied during the dynamical platoon evolution imposed by the computed routing decisions. To efficiently evaluate the performance of the proposed control architecture, a co-design procedure, involving the SUMO and MATLAB platforms, is implemented so that complex operating environments can be used, and the information coming from road maps(links,junctions, obstacles, semaphores, etc.) and vehicle state trajectories can be shared and exchanged. Finally by considering as operating scenario a real entire city block and a platoon of eleven vehicles described by double-integrator models, several simulations have been performed with the aim to put in light the main f eatures of the proposed approach. Moreover, it is important to underline that in different operating scenarios the proposed reinforcement learning scheme is capable of significantly reducing traffic congestion phenomena when compared with well-reputed competitors.
