We consider the problem of designing controllers to steer mobile robots to the source (the
minimizer) of a signal field. In addition to the mobility constraints, eg, posed by the …

This paper presents a multi-agent algorithm to address the source-seeking problem in which
the task is to locate the source of some signal (eg, a radio transmitter, a location of chemical …

Recent developments in extremum seeking theory have established a general framework for
the methodology, although the specific implementations, particularly in the context of multi …

In this paper, an energy optimizing extremum seeking controller is developed for vapor
compression systems (VCS) that automatically discovers sets of inputs that minimizes the …

We consider the problem of deploying a group of autonomous vehicles (agents) in a
formation that has higher density near the source of a measurable signal and lower density …

In this paper and its companion paper [16], the problem of cooperative source seeking by a
formation of mobile agents is considered. Each agent is equipped with position and signal …

Adaptive Navigation (AN) control strategies allow an agent to autonomously alter its
trajectory based on realtime measurements of the environment. Compared to conventional …

The simplest strategy for extremum seeking-based source localization, for sources with
unknown spatial distributions and nonholonomic unicycle vehicles without position …

This work deals with the problem of localizing a victim buried by an avalanche by means of a
drone equipped with an ARVA (Appareil de Recherche de Victimes d'Avalanche) sensor …

This article deals with the problem of victim localization in avalanches by using controlled
unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with an electromagnetic sensor (known as …
