FAST DECENTRALIZED CONTROL FOR UNIFORM DISTRIBUTION OF MOBILE ROBOTS

Annotation

The problem of synthesizing a fast decentralized control algorithm for uniform distribution of a group of mobile robots making up a multi-agent system, over a given straight line segment is considered. The aim of the study is to synthesize a group finite control algorithm to achieve distributed consensus and subsequently test it experimentally. The method used is based on the homogeneity theory and the implicit Lyapunov function method. The stability criteria for a multi-agent system are specified as a solution to a system of linear matrix inequalities. Unlike the existing method, the proposed approach allows weakening the stability criteria, simplifying the setup and application of the algorithm, as well as effectively analyzing the system dynamics and guaranteeing consensus in a finite time. The theoretical results are experimentally confirmed using an IP camera and 4 wheeled robots. The experiments demonstrated high efficiency of the proposed approach, which confirms its applicability to control problems in real conditions.
