Abstract

This article studies a distributed affine dynamic formation control problem of multiple unicycle-type agents. The moving target formation can be generated from the given nominal formation according to the affine transformation. With the designed dynamic affine formation control method, the desired moving velocity can be time-varying and the heading directions can be all the same simultaneously. If only a subset of the agents know the information of the desired moving velocity, then the control method is modified into an estimator-based one. The proposed control methods using the relative position information can be executed in the local coordinate frame of each agent. The correctness is verified by both theoretical proofs and numerical simulations.
