Abstract :
The development of decentralized control methodologies for navigation of multi-robot/vehicle systems is of paramount importance for the
faster convergence and overall deployment of such systems in various applications including formation control, search and rescue missions, manufacturing,
multi-UAV/UGV operations and many more. On the other hand, it is important to consider network and limited communication aspects between the agents
when designing such controllers. While a lot of research has been devoted to both aspects of multi-agent control, there is still shortage in the
unification of navigation and networked specs. In this talk I will present parts of our research within the two areas and propose possible future
research directions towards unification.
