Choice of the control horizon in an NMPC strategy for the full-state control of nonholonomic systems
Résumé
This paper addresses the choice of the control horizon in a Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) strat- egy for nonholonomic vehicles. The latter can be modeled by chained systems. We establish a relation between the degree of nonholonomy and the minimum length of the control horizon so as to make the full-state control possible. A necessary condition on the control horizon of NMPC is given and theoretically proved whatever the dimension of the chained system consid- ered. The theoretical results are illustrated through simulations on a (2,5) chained system, describing a car-like vehicle with one trailer. Difficult motion objectives that require a lateral displacement are considered, as well as robustness to modeling errors.
