    Abstract

    When mobile robots are intended to be used
    in hazardous environments or for long-time operations, it
    is needed to increase their robustness against faults. This
    could be achieved by means of the inclusion of Fault Tolerant
    Control (FTC) mechanisms. In this paper, a FTC based on
    fault hiding approach is proposed for a non-holonomic mobile
    robot. First, a Sliding Mode Controller (SMC) is designed to
    control the robost and to cope with modelling uncertainty.
    Later on, it is enhanced to take into account actuator faults
    leading to a fault hiding approach for the sliding mode faulttolerant
    control of the robot. Results using simulated fault
    scenarios are presented to illustrate the performance of the
    proposed approach.
