This paper deals with the design and optimization of a Fuzzy Logic Controller that is used in the obstacle avoidance and path tracking problems of mobile robot navigation. The Fuzzy Logic controller is tuned using reinforcement learning controlled Genetic Algorithm. The operator probabilities of the Genetic Algorithm are adapted using reinforcement learning technique. The reinforcement learning algorithm used in this paper is Q-learning, a recently developed reinforcement learning algorithm. The performance of the Fuzzy-Logic Controller tuned with reinforcement controlled Genetic Algorithm is then compared with the one tuned with uncontrolled Genetic Algorithm. The theory is applied to a two-wheeled mobile robot’s path tracking problem. It is shown that the performance of the Fuzzy-Logic controller tuned by Genetic Algorithm controlled via reinforcement learning is better than the performance of the Fuzzy-Logic controller tuned via uncontrolled Genetic Algorithm.

Considering that when a vehicle travels on a low friction coefficient road with high speed, the path tracking ability declines. To keep the performance of path tracking and improve the stabilization under that situation, this article presents approaches to estimate the parameters and control the vehicle. First, the key states of the vehicle and the road adhesion coefficient are estimated by the unscented Kalman filter. This is followed by applying the linear time-varying model-based predictive controller to achieve path tracking control, and the initial tire steering angle control rate is obtained. Finally, the steering angle compensation controller is simultaneously designed by a simple receding horizon corrector algorithm to improve vehicle stability when the path is tracked on a low-adhesion coefficient or at high speed. The performance of the proposed approach is evaluated by software CarSim and MATLAB/Simulink. Simulation results show that an improvement in the performance of path tracking and stabilization can be achieved by the integrated controller under the variable road adhesion coefficient condition and high speed with 110 km/h.
