This control strategy is based on both distributed intelligence and machine learning and involves three parts: the rigid formation controller, the perception system and the path planner. Our controller is event-based and thus its control-coordination strategy can be self-adaptive and applied to real dynamic environment. During the navigating process, the multi-robots system derives the environment model, performs the path planning process that guaranties both the transportation constraints and the obstacle avoidance. For the validation, both simulation and real robot experiments are performed. The results show that the developed control strategy can be well used for realistic logistics applications.展开更多

文摘Autonomous navigation is a key technology for unmanned motion platforms to perform their tasks smoothly.The current approaches for daytime polarization navigation have been extensively researched.However,the polarization light intensity is the fundamental information within the polarization image,and the light intensity at night is 6-8 orders of magnitude lower than that during the day,which increase the noise and the loss of local polarization information due to occlusion,resulting in a significant decrease in the polarization orientation accuracy.Aimed at the problem,a bio-inspired model is introduced to denoise and enhance weak nighttime polarization patterns.Further,to address the issue of outlier interference in the occluded environment during practical application,a fast-fitting method of the solar meridian based on the anti-symmetric distribution of the polarization angle adjusted by Proportional and Differential(PD)control is proposed.The experimental results show that the method proposed in this paper achieves a dynamic orientation error Root Mean Square Error(RMSE)of 0.7°in the weak polarization mode at night and in the presence of local occlusion.The proposed method has strong robustness under weak polarization occlusion at night,and the orientation accuracy is improved by 97%and 80%in comparison to the least squares method,which provides a new method for polarization navigation at night.This effectively improves the robustness and environmental applicability of the bionic polarization compass for nighttime applications.
文摘Microelectromechanical systems(MEMS)technology has gained significant attention over the past decade for measuring inertial angular velocity.However,due to inherent complexity,MEMS gyroscopes typically feature up to ten times more parameters than traditional sensors,making selection a challenging task even for experts.This study addresses this challenge,focusing on defensive guidance,navigation,and control(GNC)systems where precise and reliable angular velocity measurement is critical to overall performance.A comprehensive mathematical model is introduced to encapsulate all key MEMS parameters,accompanied by discussions on calibration and Allan variance interpretation.For six leading MEMS gyroscope applications,namely inertial navigation,integrated navigation,autopilot systems,rotating projectiles,homing guidance,and north finding,the most critical parameters are identified,distinguishing suitable and unsuitable sensor choices.Special emphasis is placed on inertial navigation systems,where practical rules of thumb for error evaluation are derived using six degrees of freedom motion equations.Rigorous simulations demonstrate the influence of various sensor parameters through real-world case studies,including static navigation,multi-rotor attitude estimation,gimbal stabilization,and north finding via a turntable.This work aims to be a beacon for practitioners across diverse fields,empowering them to make more informed design decisions.

文摘Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)plays a prominent role in various fields,and autonomous navigation is a crucial component of UAV intelligence.Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL)has expanded the research avenues for addressing challenges in autonomous navigation.Nonetheless,challenges persist,including getting stuck in local optima,consuming excessive computations during action space exploration,and neglecting deterministic experience.This paper proposes a noise-driven enhancement strategy.In accordance with the overall learning phases,a global noise control method is designed,while a differentiated local noise control method is developed by analyzing the exploration demands of four typical situations encountered by UAV during navigation.Both methods are integrated into a dual-model for noise control to regulate action space exploration.Furthermore,noise dual experience replay buffers are designed to optimize the rational utilization of both deterministic and noisy experience.In uncertain environments,based on the Twin Delay Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient(TD3)algorithm with Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)network and Priority Experience Replay(PER),a Noise-Driven Enhancement Priority Memory TD3(NDE-PMTD3)is developed.We established a simulation environment to compare different algorithms,and the performance of the algorithms is analyzed in various scenarios.The training results indicate that the proposed algorithm accelerates the convergence speed and enhances the convergence stability.In test experiments,the proposed algorithm successfully and efficiently performs autonomous navigation tasks in diverse environments,demonstrating superior generalization results.
