In the 1990s, the modern scientific and technological revolution marked by computer technology, microelectronics technology, information technology, network technology, etc., entered a rapid development stage, which became the intrinsic driving force to promote the development of robotics technology, and robotics technology has developed rapidly. Among them, autonomous mobile robots(AMRs) can rely on the sensors they carry to perceive and understand the external environment, make real-time decisions according to the needs of the task, carry out closed-loop control, and operate in an autonomous or semi-autonomous manner. It is a new type of robot with certain self-learning and adaptive ability in known or unknown environment. Navigation is an important problem that needs to be solved for AMRs to realize autonomous control, which refers to the process of mobile robot sensing the environment and its own state through sensors and learning, and realizing the process of pointing to the target autonomous movement in an obstructed environment. Since the first mobile robot, Shakey, was introduced in the 1960s, mobile robot navigation has been receiving a lot of attention due to its comprehensiveness and practicality [1].
