Abstract

A Fuzzy approach to backward movement control 
for trailers in a dynamic environment is presented in this paper. 
The approach is then extended and employed for conditions 
where obstacles are placed on the trailer pathway. In the first 
case, obstacles are assumed to be fixed, while the second 
condition includes moving obstacles through which the trailer 
should be directed toward the parking dock. The method is 
designed in a way to be used in conditions with infinite number 
of obstacles at arbitrary places. In any case, to find the parking 
dock, the trailer movement must be adapted to that of 
obstacles. In the present paper, two separate fuzzy controllers 
are used for directing the trailer: one for finding the target, 
and the other for avoiding the obstacles. While there is no 
obstacle around, the target finder controller is in use; and in 
the cases where the trailer gets close to obstacles the obstacle 
avoider controller is activated. The proposed method is 
employed for parking a trailer model through fixed and 
moving obstacles.
