Title
Rigid formation control for a group of UAVs with augmented models that account for input generator dynamics
Abstract
The paper solves the trajectory tracking control problem for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) when the input generator dynamic effects are taking into considerations. Using the backstepping method we establish a controller for the considered model that ensures exponential convergence to a given reference trajectory. A two-mode control strategy is applied for increasing the domain of convergence. Then, using the concept of virtual vehicles we consider the application of the proposed controller for a group of UAVs in a rigid formation flight. Simulation results are demonstrated.
