Abstract

Research on the formation flight of UAVs has attracted tremendous attention in control community. As mentioned in Kuriki and Namerikawa (Consensus-based cooperative formation control with collision avoidance for a multi-UAV system, in American Control Conference, Portland; 2014), Yuan et al. (Can J For Res 45(7):783–792; 2015), Zhang et al. (Sci Technol Rev 35(7):39–48; 2017) and analyzed in Chap. 1, multi-UAVs can provide high efficiency in many fields, such as forest fire monitoring, detection and fighting, and surveillance.
