Abstract

A simplified method of plane trajectory calculation is proposed for solving the problem of planning a path defined by a sequence of waypoints. The trajectory consists of oriented segments of straight lines joined by clothoids (Cornu spirals). The efficiency of the method is validated by means of numerical simulations in the MATLAB/Simulink environment.
