Abstract: 
We present an iterative linear quadratic regulator (ILQR) method for trajectory tracking control of a wheeled mobile robot system. The proposed scheme involves a kinematic model linearization technique, a global trajectory generation algorithm, and trajectory tracking controller design. A lattice planner, which searches over a 3D (x, y, θ) configuration space, is adopted to generate the global trajectory. The ILQR method is used to design a local trajectory tracking controller. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated in simulation and experiment with a significantly asymmetric differential drive robot. The performance of the local controller is analyzed and compared with that of the existing linear quadratic regulator (LQR) method. According to the experiments, the new controller improves the control sequences (v, ω) iteratively and produces slightly better results. Specifically, two trajectories, ‘S’ and ‘8’ courses, are followed with sufficient accuracy using the proposed controller.
