Multi-Robot Systems Formation Control with Obstacle Avoidance
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with the problem of active target tracking with obstacle avoidance for multi-robot systems. A nonlinear model predictive formation control is presented which uses potential functions as terms of the cost function. These terms penalize the proximity with mates and obstacles, splitting the problem of obstacle avoidance into two repulse functions. Experimental results with real robots are presented to demonstrate the performance of the approach.

Dynamic model based formation control and obstacle avoidance of multi-robot systems
This work presents, first, a complete dynamic model of a unicycle-like mobile robot that takes part in a multirobot formation. A linear parameterization of this model is performed in order to identify the model parameters. Then, the robot model is input-output feedback linearized. On a second stage, for the multi-robot system, a model is obtained by arranging into a single equation all the feed...
