Abstract: Application of control theory to achieve effective anti-vibration protection in autonomous multi-support vehicles is considered. The first stage of the synthesis of basic digital algorithms, which provides stabilisation and dynamic ride performance potential for random excitations of multi-support vehicles is described. The structure and parameters of adaptive digital control algorithm providing for high efficiency of vibrations control with minimal demands on performance are defined.

Keywords: autonomous vehicles; anti-vibration protection system; mathematical modelling; adaptive control system; active suspension system; controlled multi-support vehicle; vibration control.
