Abstract

A control agregation scheme that combines a collision avoidance controller into a consensus-based formation controller is proposed. The collision avoidance controller part is designed using kinematic model approach, while the consensus-based formation controller part uses consensus algorithm with switching topology to achive non-conflicting control solution between the collision avoidance control part and the formation control part. We also investigate how the change in communication topology affects system’s capability to achieve consensus.
