Team Cooperation in a Network of Multi-Vehicle Unmanned Systems: Synthesis of Consensus Algorithms

Team Cooperation in a Network of Multi-Vehicle Unmanned Systems develops a framework for modeling and control of a network of multi-agent unmanned systems in a cooperative manner and with consideration of non-ideal and practical considerations. The main focus of this book is the development of synthesis-based algorithms rather than on conventional analysis-based approaches to the team cooperation, specifically the team consensus problems. The authors provide a set of modified design-based consensus algorithms whose optimality is verified through introduction of performance indices.
