Abstract

This paper proposes a decentralized control law of NlCyP&BG for a team of autonomous agents, which aims at achieving collective and uniform distribution around an appointed destination. A technique by virtual of coordinate constraints is described for eigenvalues derivation and contribution analysis, so that conditions for local asymptotical stability of n-agent system is deduced. Simulation work on a two-agent case and an extended four-agent case are displayed to prove the validity of stability conclusion, and at the same time the effectiveness of control law in accomplishing expected distribution and reorientation is verified exactly.
