In this paper, a control system for two wheeled inverted pendulum robot is implemented to have more stable balancing capability than the conventional control system. Fuzzy control structure is chosen for the two wheeled inverted pendulum robot, and fuzzy membership function factors for the control system are obtained for 3 specified weights using a trial-and-error method. Next a neural network is employed to generate fuzzy membership function factors for more stable control performance when the weight is arbitrarily selected. Through some experiments, we find that the proposed fuzzy control system using the neural network is superior to the conventional fuzzy control system.

Any new method for controlling a nonlinear system has widely been reported. An inverted pendulum system has typically been used as a target system for demonstrating its usefulness. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to control a flexible joint cart based inverted pendulum system. Two carts are connected with a spring and one is a driving cart and the other is no driving cart with a pole. We here present a system modeling and a good fuzzy logic based control algorithm. We also introduce LQR (Linar Quadratic Regulator) technique for reducing the number of control variables. By using this technique, the number of input variables for a fuzzy logic controller is become only two not six. So the computational complexity is largely reduced. Moreover, a two-input fuzzy logic controller has a control rule table with a skew-symmetric property. And it will lead the design of a single-input fuzzy logic controller. In order to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed method and prove the superiority of the proposed method, some computer simulations are presented.

제어를 할 때 비선형 시스템을 선형화 하는 것이 중요하다. 선형화를 하기위해는 퍼지 모델을 사용하는데 그 중 바퀴형 역진자 시스템은 비선형 시스템의 파라미터 값을 모두 알아도 T-S퍼지를 기반으로 하여 선형제어를 사용하는데 어려움이 있다. 그래서 Identification을 함으로써 바퀴형 역진자 시스템을 좀 더 편리하게 T-S 퍼지 모델로 만들 수 있다.

In this research a moving platform for a mobile robot which can run with upright posture is proposed. It is able to stand with standing arms and run uprightly based on an inverted pendulum mechanism. Conventional mobile robots generally may equip 4 wheels or 3 wheels including a caster and have good statistic stability. They need a steering mechanism to choose which way to go since they have a square or rectangular configuration with multiple wheels. When a mobile robot meets a sharply perpendicular and narrow crossroad, it may need a special steering scheme such as going forward and backward repeatedly or it sometimes cannot even pass through the crossroad because of its size. The proposed moving platform for a mobile robot changes to a upright posture which has a small planar area and is able to pass through the crossroad. We propose a moving platform for a mobile robot with a inverted pendulum mechanism and standing arms which can make the mobile robot upright.

This paper presents the system modeling, analysis, and controller design and implementation for a rotational inverted pendulum system(RIPS), which is an under-actuated system and has the problem of unattainable angular velocity state. A sliding mode controller using the parameterization of both the hyperplane and the compensator fur output feedback is applied to the RIPS. Also, to improve the performance of the control system, a disturbance observer which estimates the disturbance, parameter variation, and some modeling errors of RIPS with less computational effort is used together. The results of simulation and experiment show that the proposed control system has superior performance for disturbance rejection and regulation at certain initial conditions.

In this research an equilibrium point of a Wheeled Inverted Pendulum (WIP) running on an inclined road is derived and validated by some experiments. Generally, The WIP has stable and unstable equilibrium point. Only unstable equilibrium point is interested in the research. To keep the WIP on the unstable equilibrium point, the WIP is consistently controlled. A controller for the WIP needs a reference state for the equilibrium point. The reference state can be obtained by studying an equilibrium point of the WIP. This research is deriving dynamic equations of the WIP running on the inclined road and equilibrium of it based on statics. Several experiments are carried out to show the validation of the equilibrium point.

In this research a Self-Standable mobile Robot with standing arms based on an Wheeled Inverted Pendulum is developed. Almost existing mobile robots have wide planar shape that is statistically stable and it is sometimes hard for them to run or steer on a narrow road. A Wheeled Inverted Pendulum based mobile robot has vertical shape that is upright-running and easily steering on a narrow road. It, however, requires actively balancing control and never restores the shape once it falls down. This research develops a Self-Standable mobile robot which equips standing arms and is able to change its chassis' posture freely from planar to vertical shape or vice versa.

A sliding mode control method using the parameterization of both the hyperplane and the compensator for output feedback and reduced observer is presented for rotational inverted pendulums. This control strategy overcomes the problem of unattainable velocity state which is resulted from severe noise of analogue sense and constructs numerical algorithms designs of dynamic output feedback sliding mode hyperplane and controller. The result of the experiment shows the superior performance compared with the LQ controller and the robustness with respect to both tapping disturbances and certain initial conditions.
