Operations on Rigid Formations of Autonomous Agents∗
This paper is concerned with the maintenance of rigid formations of mobile autonomous agents. A key element in all future multi-agent systems will be the role of sensor and communication networks as an integral part of coordination. Network topologies are critically important for autonomous systems involving mobile underwater, ground and air vehicles and for sensor networks. This paper focuses ...
متن کاملLocalization of Formations of Autonomous Agents Using Bearing Measurements
THIS CHAPTER begins by treating a localization problem recently encountered in an operational context; that is, localizing three agents moving in a plane when the interagent distances are known, and in addition, the angle subtended at each agent by lines drawn from two landmarks at known positions is also known. It is shown as a key conclusion that there are in general a fi nite number greater ...
متن کاملTaming inter-distance mismatches in formation-motion control for rigid formations of second-order agents
This paper presents the analysis on the influence of distance mismatches on the standard gradient-based rigid formation control for second-order agents. It is shown that, similar to the first-order case as recently discussed in the literature, these mismatches introduce two undesired group behaviors: a distorted final shape and a steady-state motion of the group formation. We show that such und...
متن کاملRigid Formations with Leader-Follower Architecture
This paper is concerned with information structures used in rigid formations of autonomous agents that have leaderfollower architecture. The focus of this paper is on sensor/network topologies to secure control of rigidity. We extend our previous approach for formations with symmetric neighbor relations to include formations with leader-follower architecture. Necessary and sufficient conditions...
متن کاملAgent and Link Redundancy for Autonomous Formations
More and more often the multiagent formations found in high-risk military and civilian missions are designed to sustain the loss of some agents or control/communication links. In a military context, the agent loss could be a result of enemy attack and/or mechanical breakdown, while the link loss is usually due to enemy jamming, reduced transmission power, obstacles and/or hardware failure. If t...
