Control Barrier Function only Formation Tracking in Multi-Agent Systems

摘要

This paper presents a real-time control framework for formation tracking of heterogeneous multi-agent systems with non-linear dynamics. The proposed method formulates a single Control Barrier Function-like constraint within a quadratic optimization setting that addresses formation tracking. Relying on the relative information of neighboring agents, the controller is designed to operate without the need for manual parameter tuning or a separate nominal formation controller. The leader-follower framework is validated through simulations of moving formations.
