Abstract
This paper presents a survey of recent research in cooperative control of multi-vehicle systems, using a common mathematical framework to allow different methods to be compared to each other. The survey has three primary parts: an overview of current applications of cooperative control, an summary of some of the key technical approaches that have been explored, and a description of some possible future directions for research. The articles that are used as a basis for this survey have been chosen in part based on their citation frequency and hence represent some of the seminal papers in the field.
Note: this page contains links to most (hopefully all) of the papers used for the review and is intended as a working document for the preparation of the article. A copy of the submitted version of the article will be posted here when it is available.
