The field of mobile robotics faces a serious challenge with trajectory tracking. The trajectory tracking of the differential-drive wheeled mobile robot is studied in this thesis using a control strategy that combines kinematics based backstepping with optimized fractional-order PID controllers for the dynamics. Moreover, to obtain an optimal control system, fuzzy inference system and genetic algorithm optimization techniques are applied separately to tune the parameters of the fractional order PID dynamic controllers. Finally, several simulations are implemented to the trajectory tracking of mobile robots in the cases with and without disturbance signal, and the results can confirm the effectiveness and superiority of the combined control scheme. The fuzzy based FOPID controller response performs better with ITAE of 0.0289 and 0.0364 in the x and y direction respectively whereas with GA based FOPID the ITAE is 0.374 and 0.285. the robustness of the backstepping controller is also clearly proved.}, DOI = {} }
