Abstract:A distributed flocking control scheme is presented for a swarm of non-holonomic vehicles modeled as linear parameter varying (LPV) systems.The vehicles are assumed to perform tasks that arise when exploring scalar fields on R 3 , which may represent, for example, concentration levels of a toxic substance in air or water. Here we consider in particular level surface tracking and level surface monitoring missions. It is assumed that agents can sense gradient and Hessian information of the scalar field at their c… Show more
