Abstract:
To finish the closed-loop test of the lunar rover GNC test system, the dynamics modeling and control problem of a six-wheel rocker-bogie lunar rover is studied under the condition of rough terrain, soft soil and low-gravity. A Newton-Euler dynamics model of the rover is established based on elastoplastic wheel-terrain mechanics and viscoelastic joints. Velocity cooperative control considering the slip of wheels is used for the closed-loop traction control, with the goal to track desired velocity and angular velocity of the rover. Both dynamics model and traction control system are finished on a real-time system to evaluate the model and the control method, and a 3D visualization simulation platform is developed. Experimental results show that the model is accurate and steady, the rover motion and wheel-terrain interaction can be truly simulated, the joint constraints are satisfied, and the desired motion can be accurately tracked.
