The invention relates to the field of control, in particular to an AGV relative
position control method based on kernel function prediction, and the method comprises the steps: collecting the
relative motion state characteristics of an AGV, and constructing a
time sequence and an expected
time sequence; for each feature, calculating a bandwidth adjustment coefficient based on multi-
cycle length analysis, performing feature adaptive bandwidth adjustment on a
Gaussian kernel function, and calculating an
adaptive kernel similarity between the current moment and the historical moment; based on the similarity and a
Gaussian process regression model, obtaining initial prediction values under each
period length, and fusing the initial prediction values into a comprehensive prediction value through confidence weight fusion; and finally, carrying out closed-
loop control on the relative position of the AGV according to the deviation between the comprehensive predicted value and the expected value. According to the method, fusion of feature
adaptive kernel similarity calculation and multi-cycle prediction is realized, and the control precision and robustness under disturbance of tire slipping, load change and the like are improved.
