Abstract

This paper investigates a distributed control problem for maintaining connectivity and avoiding collisions among multiple autonomous aerial vehicles (AAVs). A novel distributed estimator is proposed for AAVs. The following AAVs utilize information from their neighbors to estimate the output information of all AAVs. By incorporating a connectivity maintenance function and a collision-free potential field function, the following AAVs avoid collisions with each other and obstacles while maintaining network connectivity. A dual-model predictive control (dual-MPC) algorithm for AAVs, referred to as outer-loop and inner-loop model predictive control optimization, is designed to quickly track the leading AAV. Stability and feasibility of the dual-MPC algorithm can be ensured by uniting rolling optimization with fuzzy logic systems. Finally, the simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

期刊介绍： The proposed journal, called the IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering (TNSE), is committed to timely publishing of peer-reviewed technical articles that deal with the theory and applications of network science and the interconnections among the elements in a system that form a network. In particular, the IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering publishes articles on understanding, prediction, and control of structures and behaviors of networks at the fundamental level. The types of networks covered include physical or engineered networks, information networks, biological networks, semantic networks, economic networks, social networks, and ecological networks. Aimed at discovering common principles that govern network structures, network functionalities and behaviors of networks, the journal seeks articles on understanding, prediction, and control of structures and behaviors of networks. Another trans-disciplinary focus of the IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering is the interactions between and co-evolution of different genres of networks.
