| Abstract | To solve the problem of poor steering consistency for each steering wheel of a four-wheel, independent-steering, high-clearance paddy field management machine, given that the true steering angle of the front wheel cannot be directly obtained through the left and right front wheels steering angle value, a BP (Back Propagation) neural network equivalent steering angle prediction method based on signal feature extraction is proposed in this paper, which can be used to obtain the equivalent steering angle of the front wheel. First, the kinematics model of the paddy field management machine was constructed with the prediction of the steering angle of the management machine as the object. The body was set up in two application environments of cement ground and paddy field, two moving speeds (25 cm/s, 50 cm/s) and three preset steering angles (0°, ±10°) to form six motion modes. The steering angle of the front wheel of the body, the three-axis acceleration of the body, and the angular velocity of the z-axis under twelve conditions were collected. Combining the collected data with the actual trajectory data of the differential BeiDou, the feasibility analysis of the equivalent steering angle prediction was carried out. With the aim of determining an appropriate combination of input factors for optimal equivalent steering angle prediction by the BP neural network, we used FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) and power spectrum conversion to extract and analyze the signal features of the airframe attitude data and obtain the frequency characteristics of the peak power point of the power spectrum, respectively. Through a factor combination test, the optimal BP neural network training factors were determined and, finally, we confirmed that the rotation angles of the front wheels and the z-axis angular velocity may be used as effective training factors. In our investigation on the test set, the mean square error of the equivalent steering angle was found to be less than 0.66°, demonstrating that our approach is effective for obtaining the true steering angle of the front wheel. |
