Affine Formation Control from Data

Different from existing works that require information of dynamic models, this paper investigates how to achieve distributed affine formation control without such information. First, a leader-follower framework is introduced, which forms the basis for a data-driven distributed protocol that enables followers to form a time-varying target formation. This method removes the necessity for followers to employ estimators to obtain information about the target formation. Second, by addressing both noise-free and noisy data scenarios, data-based stability criteria for multi-agent systems are developed, with the control gain matrices derived.

Abstract

Different from existing works that require information of dynamic models, this paper investigates how to achieve distributed affine formation control without such information. First, a leader-follower framework is introduced, which forms the basis for a data-driven distributed protocol that enables followers to form a time-varying target formation. This method removes the necessity for followers to employ estimators to obtain information about the target formation. Second, by addressing both noise-free and noisy data scenarios, data-based stability criteria for multi-agent systems are developed, with the control gain matrices derived.
