Research on Trajectory Tracking of Sliding Mode Control Based on Adaptive Preview Time

The preview model is one of the common methods used in trajectory tracking. The traditional fixed preview time is not adaptable to most speeds and road conditions, which not only reduces the tracking accuracy but also reduces the vehicle stability. Therefore, a controller can be designed to determine the adaptive preview time based on an optimization function of the lateral deviation, the road boundary, and the road boundary of the whole vehicle motion response characteristics. Traditional optimal preview control theory predicts the next state of the vehicle by the assumption of constant transverse pendulum angular velocity. In this paper, an expectation-based approach is used to find the ideal steering wheel turning angle based on the adaptive preview time, and a single-point preview model is established. Based on the two-degree-of-freedom dynamics model, a sliding mode controller is designed for control, and the low-pass filters are designed to suppress jitter in the sliding mode controller. Simulation results with different preview times, different speeds and different road adhesion coefficients prove that the controller has a good control effect and has good effectiveness and adaptability to speed and adhesion coefficient
