Abstract
A method for controlling an automated or autonomous locomotive device, including automatically ascertaining a deviation from a predefined trajectory, the deviation requiring a return of the locomotive device to the predefined trajectory; automatically calculating a jerk as an input variable, as a function of the deviation from the predefined trajectory; automatically calculating an unconstrained correcting variable for the return to the predefined trajectory, as a function of a weighted sum that includes a weighted summand of the input variable and a weighted summand of the state for the return path; automatically calculating a constrained correcting variable regarding the jerk; the unconstrained correcting variable being manipulated via a cascade that includes multiple stages having one saturation function per stage; integrating the constrained correcting variable, to obtain a constrained return trajectory to the predefined trajectory; automatically steering the locomotive device to the predefined trajectory by way of the constrained return trajectory.
