Abstract
The validation of the developed supervisory preview navigation controller was conducted with both computer simulation and field tests on an agricultural tractor platform equipped with RTK-GPS and FOG posture sensors. The field tests showed that the root mean squared (RMS) offset error was less than 0.05 m and the maximum offset error was less than 0.1 m for a straight path at speeds of up to 3 m/s . The RMS offset error was less than 0.1 m and the maximum offset error of 0.2 m for a curved path with a radius of 0.1 m at speeds of up to 1.5 m/ s.
