Abstract

This paper presents a decentralized uni-directional coordination control law for a fleet of mobile robots that must arrive at a final destination simultaneously. Coordination in time of all vehicles is achieved via a leaderless PI controller that adjusts the desired velocity profile of each vehicle. The method is applicable to formation control along a path by appropriate choice of the coordination parameters.
