Airship Formation Control [PDF]

Proceedings of the 2nd International Workshop on Multi-Agent Robotic Systems, 2006
This paper addresses the problem underlying the control and coordination of multiple autonomous airships that must travel maintaining a desired geometric formation and simultaneously avoid collisions with moving or stationary obstacles. The control architecture is based on the attractor dynamics approach to behaviour generation.
