Fully Distributed Flocking with a Moving Leader for Lagrange Networks with Parametric Uncertainties
arXiv (Cornell University)(2015)
摘要
This paper addresses the leader–follower flocking problem with a moving leader for networked Lagrange systems with parametric uncertainties under a proximity graph. Here a group of followers move cohesively with the moving leader to maintain connectivity and avoid collisions for all time and also eventually achieve velocity matching. In the proximity graph, the neighbor relationship is defined according to the relative distance between each pair of agents. Each follower is able to obtain information from only the neighbors in its proximity, involving only local interaction. We consider two cases: (i) the leader moves with a constant velocity, and (ii) the leader moves with a varying velocity. In the first case, a distributed continuous adaptive control algorithm accounting for unknown parameters is proposed in combination with a distributed continuous estimator for each follower. In the second case, a distributed discontinuous adaptive control algorithm and estimator are proposed. Then the algorithm is extended to be fully distributed with the introduction of gain adaptation laws. In all proposed algorithms, only one-hop neighbors’ information (e.g., the relative position and velocity measurements between the neighbors and the absolute position and velocity measurements) is required, and flocking is achieved as long as the connectivity and collision avoidance are ensured at the initial time and the control gains are designed properly. Numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the theoretical results.
