Collective control of a multiagent system is concerned with designing strategies for a group
of autonomous agents operating in a networked environment. The aim is to achieve a global …

Distributed coordination of multi-agent systems (MASs) has received considerable attention
and advanced rapidly in the past years. This paper reviews the recent results on cooperative …

This note investigates the problem of moving-target circular formation of nonholonomic
vehicles, such that the controlled vehicles orbit around a target moving with a time-varying …

This paper develops a model predictive flocking control scheme for second-order multi-
agent systems with input constraints. By penalizing both the control effort and the irregularity …

A multi-unmanned surface vessel (USV) formation control system is established on a novel
platform composed of three 1.2-m-long hydraulic jet propulsion surface vessels, a differential …

This paper investigates the circular formation control problem of multiple nonholonomic
vehicles of unicycle type. The measurement of each vehicle is based on its local coordinate …

The problem of cooperative circumnavigation of a moving target with multiple nonholonomic
robots is addressed in this paper. The goal for the multi-robot system is to circumnavigate …

The discrete-time double-integrator consensus problem is addressed for multi-agent
systems with directed switching proximity topologies and input constraints. Some model …

This article proposes an equal-distance surrounding control method for second-order
nonlinear multiagent systems (MASs) to encircle multiple moving targets with guaranteed …

The high performance and efficiency of multiple unmanned surface vehicles (multi-USV)
promote the further civilian and military applications of coordinated USV. As the basis of …
