The primary motivation is an integrated reactive navigation control system with good real-time performance under uncertainty. To accomplish this aim, a probabilistic fuzzy logic system (PFLS) is introduced to range measurement and reactive navigation in local environments. PFLS is first adopted to handle the fuzzy and stochastic uncertainties in range sensors and to provide more precise distance information in unknown environments. Consequently these sensor data are sent to a probabilistic fuzzy rule-based inference system with reactive behaviors for local navigation. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach are verified by simulation and the experiments on a real mobile robot.展开更多
