This paper presents a control strategy based on time-varying fixed-time convergent higher order control barrier functions for a class of leader-follower multi-agent systems under signal temporal logic (STL) tasks. Each agent is assigned a local STL task which may be dependent on the behavior of agents involved in other tasks. In each local task, one agent called the leader has knowledge on the associated tasks and controls the performance of the subgroup involved agents. Our approach finds a robust solution to guarantee the fixed-time satisfaction of STL tasks in a least violating way and independent of the agents initial conditions. In particular, the robust performance of the task satisfaction is based on the knowledge of the leader from the followers and can be adjusted in a user-specified way.

This paper presents a control strategy based on a new notion of time-varying fixed-time convergent control barrier functions (TFCBFs) for a class of coupled multi-agent systems under signal temporal logic (STL) tasks. In this framework, each agent is assigned a local STL task regradless of the tasks of other agents. Each task may be dependent on the behavior of other agents which may cause conflicts on the satisfaction of all tasks. Our approach finds a robust solution to guarantee the fixed-time satisfaction of STL tasks in a least violating way and independent of the agents initial condition in the presence of undesired violation effects of the neighbor agents. Particularly, the robust performance of the task satisfactions can be adjusted in a user-specified way.
We study the problem of controlling multi-agent systems under a set of signal temporal logic tasks. Signal temporal logic is a formalism that is used to express time and space constraints for dynamical systems. Recent methods to solve the control syn thesis problem for single-agent systems under signal temporal logic tasks are, however, subject to a high computational complexity. Methods for multi-agent systems scale at least linearly with the number of agents and induce even higher computational burdens. We propose a computationally-efficient control strategy to solve the multi-agent control synthesis problem that results in a robust satisfaction of a set of signal temporal logic tasks. In particular, a decentralized feedback control law is proposed that is based on time-varying control barrier functions. The obtained control law is discontinuous and formal guarantees are provided by nonsmooth analysis. Simulations show the efficacy of the presented method.
In this paper, we introduce the notion of periodic safety, which requires that the system trajectories periodically visit a subset of a forward-invariant safe set, and utilize it in a multi-rate framework where a high-level planner generates a refere nce trajectory that is tracked by a low-level controller under input constraints. We introduce the notion of fixed-time barrier functions which is leveraged by the proposed low-level controller in a quadratic programming framework. Then, we design a model predictive control policy for high-level planning with a bound on the rate of change for the reference trajectory to guarantee that periodic safety is achieved. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy on a simulation example, where the proposed fixed-time stabilizing low-level controller shows successful satisfaction of control objectives, whereas an exponentially stabilizing low-level controller fails.
This paper deals with data-driven output synchronization for heterogeneous leader-follower linear multi-agent systems. Given a multi-agent system that consists of one autonomous leader and a number of heterogeneous followers with external disturbance s, we provide necessary and sufficient data-based conditions for output synchronization. We also provide a design method for obtaining such output synchronizing protocols directly from data. The results are then extended to the special case that the followers are disturbance-free. Finally, a simulation example is provided to illustrate our results.
We present a robust control framework for time-critical systems in which satisfying real-time constraints is of utmost importance for the safety of the system. Signal Temporal Logic (STL) provides a formal means to express a variety of real-time cons traints over signals and is suited for planning and control purposes as it allows us to reason about the time robustness of such constraints. The time robustness of STL particularly quantifies the extent to which timing uncertainties can be tolerated without violating real-time specifications. In this paper, we first pose a control problem in which we aim to find an optimal input sequence to a control system that maximizes the time robustness of an STL constraint. We then propose a Mixed Integer Linear Program (MILP) encoding and provide correctness guarantees and a complexity analysis of the encoding. We also show in two case studies that maximizing STL time robustness allows to account for timing uncertainties of the underlying control system.
