Formation control problems for quadrotor swarm systems are investigated. Firstly, for the
formation control, the quadrotor is regarded as a point-mass system, and the dynamics of …

This article studies finite-time distributed formation tracking control of a second-order multi-
unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) system. To reduce the burden of the system's computation …

In this paper, we investigate distributed consensus problems for multiple miniature aerial
vehicles (MAVs) with nonlinear dynamics and uncertainty. We develop distributed …

In this paper we investigate the problem of using a UAV to provide current map information
of the environment in front of a moving ground vehicle. We propose a simple coverage plan …

This work investigates robust asymptotic consensus tracking problems for a group of cloud-
connected leader-follower unmanned aerial vehicles with uncertainty. The protocols for …

Abstract Recently, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have attracted a great deal of attention
in academic, civilian and military communities as prospective solutions to a wide variety of …

Intelligent and flexible control strategies are required to allow a team of cooperative
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) to accomplish a multitude of challenging group tasks. In …

This paper presents nonsingular terminal sliding mode-based robust finite-time consensus
tracking protocols for the network of leader-follower quadrotor aerial vehicles with …

This paper develops robust adaptive tracking synchronization protocol for a group of cloud
connected leader-follower multirotor aerial vehicles (MAVs) with uncertainty. The design …

A simple coverage plan called a Conformal Lawn Mower plan is demonstrated. This plan
enables a UAV to fully cover the route ahead of a moving ground vehicle. The plan requires …
