A UAV Formation Control Algorithm Based on Geometric Location

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) formation is a fundamental application of multi-agent network with special task. The problem of multi-UAV localization considering collision avoidance are studied in this article. Based on the existing geometric localization algorithm, a fusion algorithm is proposed. Gradient method and MLE are used in the algorithm to localize unknown UAVs. Simulation results from Matlab and gazebo are presented to show that the algorithm can converge quickly and ensure safety between UAVs.
