Leader-following formation control of multi-robot systems with adaptive fuzzy terminal sliding-mode controller

TLDR
It is indicated that the proposed adaptive control scheme can provide better leader-following formation responses of networked multiple robots.
Abstract
This paper focuses on the design of a formation controller for multi-robot dynamic systems using adaptive fuzzy terminal sliding-mode techniques. The dynamic model of differential wheeled robots is considered. To achieve finite time leader-follower formation control, a fuzzy terminal sliding-mode controller is derived based on graph theory and consensus algorithm. Moreover, an adaptive law is provided to estimate the bounds of unknown uncertainties. Both simulation and experimental results are applied to validate the formation performance. It is indicated that the proposed adaptive control scheme can provide better leader-following formation responses of networked multiple robots.

Brief paper: Some necessary and sufficient conditions for second-order consensus in multi-agent dynamical systems

TL;DR: A necessary and sufficient condition is provided, which shows that consensus can be achieved in a multi-agent system whose network topology contains a directed spanning tree if and only if the time delay is less than a critical value.
