This paper presents a survey of recent research in cooperative control of multivehicle
systems, using a common mathematical framework to allow different methods to be …

Hardware-in-the-loop simulation and test has been an essential part in the development of
spacecraft formation flight, rendezvous, capture/docking, and spacecraft robotics systems …

A fully updated textbook on linear systems theory Linear systems theory is the cornerstone of
control theory and a well-established discipline that focuses on linear differential equations …

We address the problem of position trajectory-tracking and path-following control design for
underactuated autonomous vehicles in the presence of possibly large modeling parametric …

As an alternative to cumbersome aerial vehicles with considerable maintenance
requirements and flight envelope restrictions, the X4 flyer is chosen as the basis for the …

We examine two special cases of the problem of optimal linear quadratic Gaussian control of
a system whose state is being measured by sensors that communicate with the controller …

A generalized model predictive control (MPC) formulation is derived that extends the
existing theory to a multi-vehicle formation stabilization problem. The vehicles are …

Borrowing a concept from hydrodynamic analysis, this paper presents stream functions
which satisfy Laplace's equation as a local-minima free method for producing potential-field …

In this paper, we study cooperative control algorithms using pairwise interactions, for the
purpose of controlling flocks of unmanned vehicles. An important issue is the role the …

This paper addresses the leader-follower consensus problem of multivehicle wirelessly
networked uncertain systems with nonlinear dynamics and actuator fault and proposes a …
