Analogical Gates: A Network Approach to Fuzzy Control with Applications to a Non-Holonomic Autonomous Mobile Robot

Abstract

Analogical gates are developed to implement four-quadrant fuzzy-generalisation of Boolean logical gates. Networks built using Analogical gates are shown to be useful in real-time control of mobile robots. In this paper, the usefulness of Analogical gates is demonstrated by meansof three applications: 1) state-feedback controller of a non-holonomic mobile robot, 2) Command-fusion for a PID-controller with anti-resetwind-up, and 3) Behaviour fusion of an autonomous mobile robot.
