Abstract

It is required for UGV(Unmanned Ground Vehicle) to have a LPP(Local Path Plan) component which generate a local path via the center of road by analyzing binary map to travel autonomously unpaved road in rough environment. In this paper, we present the method of boundary estimation for unpaved road and a local path planning method based on RANGER algorithm using the estimated boundary. In specially, the paper presents an approach to estimate road boundary and the selection method of candidate path to minimize the problem of zigzag driving based on Bayesian probability reasoning. Field test is conducted with scenarios in rough environment in which bush, tree and unpaved road are included and the performance of proposed method is validated.
