Collective Motion of Self-Propelled Particles: Stabilizing Symmetric Formations on Closed Curves
2006
Proceedings of the 45th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control
We provide feedback control laws to stabilize formations of multiple, unit speed particles on smooth, convex, and closed curves with definite curvature. As in previous work we exploit an analogy with coupled phase oscillators to provide controls which isolate symmetric particle formations that are invariant to rigid translation of all the particles. In this work, we do not require all particles to be able to communicate; rather we assume that inter-particle communication is limited and can be
