Second-order Consensus Protocols in Multiple Vehicle Systems with Local Interactions
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a distributed coordination scheme with local interactions is studied for multiple vehicle systems. We introduce a second-order consensus protocol and derive necessary and/or sufficient conditions under which consensus can be reached in the context of uni-directional interaction topologies. The consensus protocol is then applied to achieve altitude alignment among a team of micro air vehicles as an illustrative example.

Distributed multi-vehicle coordinated control via local information exchange
This paper describes a distributed coordination scheme with local information exchange for multiple vehicle systems. We introduce second-order consensus protocols that take into account motions of the information states and their derivatives, extending first-order protocols from the literature. We also derive necessary and sufficient conditions under which consensus can be reached in the contex...
متن کاملCoordinated Control for Networked Multi-Agent Systems
Coordination in networked multi-agent systems attracts significant interest in the realm of engineering. Typical examples include formations of unmanned aerial vehicles, automated highway systems, and sensor networks. One common feature for these systems is that coordinated behaviors are exhibited by interactions among agents where information exchange and manipulation are necessary. In this wo...
متن کاملAdaptive Neural Network Method for Consensus Tracking of High-Order Mimo Nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems
This paper is concerned with the consensus tracking problem of high order MIMO nonlinear multi-agent systems. The agents must follow a leader node in presence of unknown dynamics and uncertain external disturbances. The communication network topology of agents is assumed to be a fixed undirected graph. A distributed adaptive control method is proposed to solve the consensus problem utilizing re...
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 کاملA survey on the wi-fi wireless network systems penetration approaches
Wireless network technology made it possible to communicate easily using the electromagnetic waves leading to removing the biggest barrier in portable communications. As these networks use the air as the communication medium which leads to face with more vulnerabilities. Wireless networks play a vital role in our life in a way that all devices ranging from local modems to organizational equipme...
