Abstract
This paper considers formation control of a group of wheeled mobile robots with uncertainty. Decentralized cooperative robust controllers are proposed in two steps. In the first step, cooperative control laws are proposed for multiple kinematic systems with the aid of results from graph theory such that a group of robots comes into a desired formation. In the second step, cooperative robust control laws for multiple uncertain dynamic systems are proposed with the aid of backstepping techniques and the passivity properties of the dynamic systems such that multiple robots comes into a desired formation. Since communication delay is inevitable in cooperative control, its effect on the proposed controllers is analyzed. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed controllers.
