Distributed control and location estimation of multiagent systems have received tremendous
research attention in recent years because of their potential across many application …

This paper proposes a general approach to design convergent coordination control laws for
multiagent systems subject to motion constraints. The main contribution of this paper is to …

This paper presents an angle-based approach for distributed formation shape stabilization
of multi-agent systems in the plane. We develop an angle rigidity theory to study whether a …

This technical note aims to design a decentralized control strategy for multiple double-
integrator agents to achieve flocking while maintaining an angle-constrained triangulated …

This paper discusses a formation control problem in which a target formation is defined with
both distance and signed area constraints. The control objective is to drive spatially …

The high performance and efficiency of multiple unmanned surface vehicles (multi-USV)
promote the further civilian and military applications of coordinated USV. As the basis of …

This article studies the multiagent control problem for affine, rigid, and translational
formation, with the aim of developing a unified distributed control strategy for global and …

In this paper, we study rigid formation control systems modelled by double integrators. Two
kinds of double-integrator formation systems are considered, namely formation stabilisation …

This paper develops a sign rigidity theory to characterize and examine multi-agent rigid
formations consistent with a formation specification including distance-and signed area …

This paper develops a ratio-of-distance (RoD) rigidity theory to study when a framework can
be uniquely determined by a set of RoD constraints up to similar transformations (translation …
