Formation Control of Multiple Autonomous Vehicles: Theory and Experimentation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The formation control of multiple vehicles using a perceptive frame is studied in this paper. The method is applied to multiple mobile robots. The controller design and lab experiments are shown in the paper. Some useful strategies of coordination are implemented in a perceptive frame by reference projections. The feature of the coordination is illustrated by experiments of three mobile robots.

Adaptive Robust Control for Trajectory Tracking of Autonomous underwater Vehicles on Horizontal Plane
This manuscript addresses trajectory tracking problem of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) on the horizontal plane. Adaptive sliding mode control is employed in order to achieve a robust behavior against some uncertainty and ocean current disturbances, assuming that disturbance and its derivative are bounded by unknown boundary levels. The proposed approach is based on a dual layer adaptive...
متن کاملScheduling of Multiple Autonomous Guided Vehicles for an Assembly Line Using Minimum Cost Network Flow
This paper proposed a parallel automated assembly line system to produce multiple products having multiple autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs). Several assembly lines are configured to produce multiple products in which the technologies of machines are shared among the assembly lines when required. The transportation between the stations in an assembly line (intra assembly line) and among station...
متن کاملDistributed Cooperative Control of Multiple Vehicle Formations Using Structural Potential Functions
In this paper, we propose a framework for formation stabilization of multiple autonomous vehicles in a distributed fashion. Each vehicle is assumed to have simple dynamics, i.e. a double-integrator, with a directed (or an undirected) information flow over the formation graph of the vehicles. Our goal is to find a distributed control law (with an efficient computational cost) for each vehicle th...
متن کاملCoordinated Path-Following Control of Multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
The concept of multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) cooperatively performing a mission offers several advantages over single vehicles working in a non-cooperative manner such as increased efficiency, performance, reconfigurability, robustness and the emergence of new capabilities. This paper introduces the concept of coordinated path-following control of multiple AUVs. The vehicles ar...
متن کاملCoordinated Motion Control of Multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
Spawned by recent advances in technology, widespread attention has been focused on the coordination of multiple autonomous vehicles. In numerous mission scenarios, the concept of a group of agents cooperating to achieve a determined goal is very attractive when compared with the solution of one single, heavily equipped vehicle, as it exhibits better performance in terms of efficiency, flexibili...
