“…Quadrotor UAVs, in particular, are capable of performing functions such as terrain-agnostic takeoff and landing, as well as hovering observations, even in complex environments. Based on these capabilities, they can accomplish tasks that are challenging for conventional UAVs in various everyday and specialized operational environments, resulting in higher utilization rates [5][6]. Formation control of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be defined as the utilization of multiple UAVs to form a cohesive swarm or cluster in order to accomplish tasks that a single UAV alone cannot achieve.…”

In recent years, the rapid development of quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has resulted in their widespread applications across various scenarios. However, single UAVs encounter multiple challenges during mission execution. Consequently, an increasing number of tasks are being conducted in the form of UAV formations. This paper focuses on quadrotor UAVs and proposes a formation control scheme that can be validated through simulation and experimentation. The research begins with the dynamic modeling of quadrotor UAVs and the design of an experimental platform for UAVs. The formation structure of UAVs is then developed based on the Leader-Follower theory, and a multi-type PID controller is employed to design the formation control algorithm.
