The agents’ behavior is featured by linear dynamics. The interaction topology among the agents is switching over time, directed and only assumed to contain a directed spanning tree. This latter is rooted by a leader-agent whose control input is unknown and bounded. A novel fully distributed TVFT controller is proposed that exhibits a reduced network information exchange property among the agents, thus less communicating-resources are utilized. The proposed controlled design is based on an adaptive observer and disturbance rejection technique, where the unknown leader-input is viewed as an external disturbance. The key feature lies in introducing a local observer in each agent-controller design to observe all the relative neighboring output-measurements and the relative neighboring distributed observer-outputs, all gathered in one signal that we denote the agent’s network information signal. The Lyapunov theory is used to prove that the closed-loop MASs tracking error is stable. An analysis of the effect of the interaction topology structure on the tracking-error convergence rate is further provided, showing the validity of the proposed formation control for switching interaction topologies. Finally, to verify the effectiveness of the obtained results, the proposed controller is extended to a cooperative guidance of a networked quadrotors to track and entrap an uncooperative aerial target that plays the role of a passive leader.","PeriodicalId":44832,"journal":{"name":"Unmanned Systems","volume":"76 14","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135088522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
