| Summary: | Abstract In this paper, a fully distributed control protocol is presented based on adaptive technology to solve the time‐varying formation problem of multi‐unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems, where the coupling weights between neighbouring UAVs can be adjusted through adaptive method. Firstly, the proposed control protocol eliminates the need for global information on the interaction topology of multi‐UAV systems, the calculation of Laplacian matrix eigenvalues is avoided and reduces the computational complexity of the system. Secondly, an algorithm with two steps is proposed to determine the distributed adaptive control gain matrices, where the feasibility condition of time‐varying formation of multi‐UAV systems is given. Then, the closed‐loop stability of multi‐UAV systems is proved through Lyapunov theory. Finally, numerical simulation is conducted to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical results. |
