Synchronization Control of High Speed Tracked Vehicle with Hydrostatic Drive

Abstract:

A synchronization control strategy with cross-coupling concept for tracked vehicle with hydrostatic drive is developed and compared with a leader-following control strategy, aiming to achieve stable straight running. Associating with the basic controller, the two kinds of synchronization controllers are designed. Dynamic system model containing the control strategy for entire tracked vehicle is modeled in MATLAB/Simulink, the results of simulation indicate that, compared with leader-following control strategy, the cross-coupling strategy can restrain synchronization error more effectively and make the system more stable obviously under external disturbances by coordinates the motion of two drive loops simultaneously.
