Abstract
Autonomous vehicles are becoming closier to people's reality. Navigation is a great concern for this robotic system. In this paper, we present a control technique for trajectory tracking by the autonomous vehicle. We designed an augmented vehicle model composed by the bycicle model dynamics and a simplified steering model. For maintaining the vehicle in the desired trajectory, a Robust Model Predictive Control (RMPC) technique was implemented using Linear Matrix Inequalites (LMIs) to control the lateral dynamics of the vehicle. Simulation tests were realized using the Double Lane Change maneuver.
