Target capturing in an ellipsoidal region for a swarm of double integrator agents

A Bono, L D'Alfonso, G Fedele… - IEEE/CAA Journal of …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper we focus on the target capturing problem for a swarm of agents modelled as
double integrators in any finite space dimension. Each agent knows the relative position of …

Formation control on planar closed curves using Fourier descriptors

M Aranda - IEEE Control Systems Letters, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This letter proposes a novel way of specifying and controlling planar multiagent formations,
based on Fourier descriptors. We consider a given ordering of the agents in a sequence …

Flocking Control Against Malicious Agent

C Zhang, H Yang, B Jiang… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This article investigates the flocking control of a swarm with a malicious agent that falsifies its
controller parameters to cause collision, division, and escape of agents in the swarm. A …

Swarm fixed-time reference tracking: a discrete model

G Fedele, L D'Alfonso, A Bono - International Journal of Control, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
This paper proposes a discrete-time kinematic model for a swarm/flock of multidimensional
agents combining two problems that are usually addressed separately: trajectory tracking …

Homotopy-based formations of robot swarms

Z Bartosiewicz - 2022 European Control Conference (ECC), 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
A problem of transformation of a planar formation of a robot swarm to another formation is
considered. Robots are placed in the vertices of a polygon, so the goal is to transform the …

Model Predictive Control of Fish Schooling Model with Reduced-Order Prediction

M Ogura, N Wakamiya - 2021 60th IEEE Conference on …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We investigate the model predictive control (MPC) of the fish schooling model by Gautrais et
al.(Annales Zoologici Fennici, 2008). The attraction/alignment/repulsion law within the …
