Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are submersible underwater vehicles controlled
by onboard computers. AUV formation is a cooperative control which focuses on controlling …

Abstract Recently, Multi-Robot Systems (MRS) have attained considerable recognition
because of their efficiency and applicability in different types of real-life applications. This …

This article addresses the distributed formation control issue of cooperative unmanned
surface vessels (USVs) under interleaved periodic event-triggered communications. First, an …

Time-varying formation tracking problems for linear multiagent systems with multiple leaders
are studied, where the states of followers form a predefined time-varying formation while …

In this paper, the cooperative output regulation problem for linear multi-agent systems with
actuator faults is considered. It is assumed that the actuator faults are outage faults and loss …

Formation control analysis and design problems for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm
systems to achieve time-varying formations are investigated. To achieve predefined time …

We present a constrained optimization method for multi-robot formation control in dynamic
environments, where the robots adjust the parameters of the formation, such as size and …

This paper investigates the leader-following consensus issue with event/self-triggered
schemes under an unreliable network environment. First, we characterize network …

In this paper, a new concept of formation learning control is introduced to the field of
formation control of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), which specifies a …

This paper comprehensively reviews the state-of-the-art development in formation control of
small satellites. Satellite formation flying, distributed satellite systems, and fractionated …
