Distance-based cooperative target-enclosing behavior by multi-vehicle systems

Abstract

This paper deals with distance-based cooperative target-enclosing behavior by multi-vehicle systems with dynamic network-topology. In this paper, two strategies are proposed. They are for moving and standing target. First, we propose target-enclosing strategies, and explain the necessary condition of network topology for achieving target-enclosing behavior. Finally, numerical simulation results and experimental results are provided that demonstrate the effectiveness of proposed method.
