Abstract
This paper describes about the validity of the preview control theory used for the tracking control of mobile robot and the determination method of the target value.When the target value is previously known, applying a preview control will be expected to suppress the extreme response and to obtain the good tracking performance. The number of preview steps is able to decide by comparing the performance index of the optimal servo system and the optimal preview servo system. The simulation results performed the validity of the optimal preview control system for the tracking control problem.
