HighlightsAutomatic navigation technology in autonomous tractors is one of the key technologies in precision agriculture.A path-tracking control algorithm based on lateral deviation and yaw rate feedback is proposed.The modified steering angle was obtained by comparing the ideal yaw rate with the actual yaw rate.The results demonstrate the efficiency and superior accuracy of the proposed algorithm for tractor path-tracking control.Abstract. The performance of path-tracking control systems for autonomous tractors affects the quality and efficiency of farmland operations. The objective of this study was to develop a path-tracking control algorithm based on lateral deviation and yaw rate feedback. The autonomous tractor path lateral dynamics model was developed based on preview theory and a two-degree-of-freedom tractor model. According to the established dynamic model, a path-tracking control algorithm using yaw angular velocity correction was designed, and the ideal steering angle was obtained by lateral deviation and sliding mode control. The modified steering angle was obtained by a proportional-integral-derivative feedback controller after comparing the ideal yaw rate with the actual yaw rate, which was then combined with the ideal steering angle to obtain the desired steering angle. The simulation and experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and superior accuracy of the proposed tractor path-tracking control algorithm, enabling its application in automatic navigation control systems for autonomous tractors. Keywords: Autonomous tractor, Path-tracking control, Sliding mode control, Yaw rate feedback.

A control method is proposed to improve vehicle yaw stability by the integrated control of yaw moment control. The control strategy using feedback compensator is proposed, which produces direct yaw moment and front steering angle to control yaw rate, by actively controlling the front steering angle, the integrated control system makes the performance of the actual vehicle model follow that of an ideal vehicle model. A experiment is performed at different conditions, the results showed the presented method can effectively control the yaw rate, and at the same time lighten the burden of the driver. Key words: EPS; Yaw rate feedback; Vehicle stability

In this paper, a novel Lyapunov-based robust controller by using meta-heuristic optimization algorithm has been proposed for lateral control of an autonomous vehicle. In the first step, double lane change path has been designed using a fifth-degree polynomial (quantic) function and dynamic constraints. A lane changing path planning method has been used to design the double lane change manoeuvre. In the next step, position and orientation errors have been extracted based on the two-degree-of-freedom vehicle bicycle model. A combination of sliding mode and backstepping controllers has been used to control the steering in this paper. Overall stability of the combined controller has been analytically proved by defining a Lyapunov function and based on Lyapunov stability theorem. The proposed controller includes some constant parameters which have effects on controller performance; therefore, particle swarm optimization algorithm has been used for finding optimum values of these parameters. The comparing result of the proposed controller with backstepping controller illustrated the better performance of the proposed controller, especially in the low road frictions. Simulation of designed controllers has been conducted by linking CarSim software with Matlab/Simulink which provides a nonlinear full vehicle model. The simulation was performed for manoeuvres with different durations and road frictions. The proposed controller has outperformed the backstepping controller, especially in low frictions.
