Optimal and Cooperative Control of Vehicle Formations
Control of vehicle formations has emerged as a topic of significant interest to the controls community. In applications such as microsatellites and underwater vehicles, formations have the potential for greater functionality and versatility than individual vehicles. In this thesis, we investigate two topics relevant to control of vehicle formations: optimal vehicle control and cooperative contr...
متن کاملCooperative Control of Unmanned Vehicle Formations
We review the enabling theory for the decentralized and cooperative control of formations of unmanned, autonomous vehicles. The decentralized and cooperative formation control approach combines recent results from dynamical system theory, control theory, and algebraic graph theory. The stability of vehicle formations is discussed, and the applicability of the technology concept to a variety of ...
متن کاملConsensus strategies for cooperative control of vehicle formations
Extensions of a consensus algorithm are introduced for systems modelled by second-order dynamics. Variants of those consensus algorithms are applied to tackle formation control problems by appropriately choosing information states on which consensus is reached. Even in the absence of centralised leadership, the consensus-based formation control strategies can guarantee accurate formation mainte...
متن کاملInformation Flow in Cooperative Control of Multi-Vehicle Systems
As the Air Force moves toward its vision of a mixed force of inhabited and uninhabited air and space vehicles, the role of integrated command, control, communications, and computation will continue to increase in importance. A key element in all future military systems will be the role of communications networks and the increased use of information ow as an integral part of military operations....
متن کاملAn Information Flow Filter Approach to Cooperative Vehicle Control
This paper extends an previously proposed information flow filter approach to cooperative vehicle control to guarantee stability of a vehicle formation under arbitrary communication topologies. A systematic design technique for this information flow filter is the main contribution of this work. For this purpose an alternative interpretation of a separation theorem that allows the independent de...
