The compact flocking of relatively localized Un-manned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in high
obstacle density areas is discussed in this paper. The presented work tackles realistic …

This article considers the distributed time-varying optimal resource allocation problem with
time-varying quadratic cost functions and a time-varying coupled equality constraint for …

Abstract This article proposes Persistence Administered Collective Navigation (PACNav) as
an approach for achieving the decentralized collective navigation of unmanned aerial …

This paper presents the developments of flight hardware and software for a multirotor
unmanned aerial vehicle, performing autonomous take-off and landing on a moving vessel …

The coordination of robot swarms-large decentralized teams of robots-generally relies on
robust and efficient inter-robot communication. Maintaining communication between robots …

This paper presents a novel approach to perform the task of cooperative transportation (CT)
by using multiple quadcopter drones. A leader-follower approach is utilized. Considering …

A decentralized algorithm for flocking of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) in environments
with high obstacle density is proposed in this work. The method combines a local planning …

Autonomous transport of objects may require multiple robots when the object is large or
heavy. Besides, in the case of deformable objects, a set of robots may also be needed to …

This article describes a novel approach to achieve motion coordination in a multirobot
system based on the concept of deformation. Our main novel contribution is to link these two …

This paper presents a geometric adaptive position tracking control system for a quadrotor
unmanned aerial vehicle. In particular, the attitude control system is designed on the product …
