Formation Constrained Multi-Agent Control

چکیده
We propose a model independent coordination strategy for multi-agent formation control. The main theorem states that under a bounded tracking error assumption our method stabilizes the formation error. We illustrate the usefulness of the method by applying it to rigid body constrained motions.

Controlling anonymous mobile agents with unidirectional locomotion to form formations on a circle
We study the circle forming problem in which a group of anonymous mobile agents are required to form a formation when moving on a given circle. The agents are constrained to move in the one-dimensional space of the circle only in the counterclockwise direction, but not the opposite way. Distributed, cooperative, sampled-data control strategies are designed that only take nonnegative values. We ...
متن کاملDistance-Constrained Formation Tracking Control
This work considers a multi-agent formation control problem where a designated leader is subjected to an additional velocity reference command. The entire formation should follow the leader while maintaining the inter-agent distance constraints. By introducing a proportional control gain term to a gradient controller that stabilizes infinitesimally rigid formations, we are able to prove stabili...
متن کاملRigid Formation Keeping and Formation Reconfiguration of Multi-Agent Systems
A motion planning algorithm is presented for formation control of coordinating multi agents engaged in rigid formation keeping and formation reconfiguration. The multi agent system is separated into geometrically equivalent subsystems for distributed control. The proposed motion planning algorithm generates reference trajectories for each of these subsystems in real-time for online, distributed...
متن کاملGuiding one-dimensional formations of mobile agents with coarsely quantized information
In this paper, we study the formation control problem for platoons of mobile agents that are guided by coarsely quantized information. A comprehensive trajectory-based analysis is presented for the convergence of the multi-agent platoon, which greatly improves the existing result that applies only to 3-agent platoons. Using tools from non-smooth analysis, it is shown that the formation can conv...
متن کاملCooperative Control of Mobile Robots in Creating a Runway Platform for Quadrotor Landing
Multi-agent systems are systems in which several agents accomplish a mission in a cooperative manner. In this paper, a novel idea for the construction of a movable runway platform based on multi-agent systems is presented. It is assumed that an aerial agent (quadrotor) decides to make an emergency landing due to reasons such as a decrease in energy level or technical failure, while there is no ...
