In this paper, a cooperative Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) problem is investigated for multi-input systems, where each input is generated by an agent in a network. The input matrices are different and locally possessed by the corresponding agents respectively, which can be regarded as different ways for agents to control the multi-input system. By embedding a fully distributed information fusion strategy, a novel cooperative LQR-based controller is proposed. Each agent only needs to communicate with its neighbors, rather than sharing information globally in a network. Moreover, only the joint controllability is required, which allows the multi-input system to be uncontrollable for every single agent or even all its neighbors. In particular, only one-time information exchange is necessary at every control step, which significantly reduces the communication consumption. It is proved that the boundedness (convergence) of the controller gains is guaranteed for time-varying (time-invariant) systems. Furthermore, the control performance of the entire system is ensured. Generally, the proposed controller achieves a better trade-off between the control performance and the communication overhead, compared with the existing centralized/decentralized/consensus-based LQR controllers. Finally, the effectiveness of the theoretical results is illustrated by several comparative numerical examples.

Multi-agent coverage control is used as a mechanism to influence the behavior of a group of robots by introducing time-varying domain. The coverage optimization problem is modified to adopt time-varying domains, and the proposed control law possesses an exponential convergence characteristic. Cumbrous control for many robots is simplified by deploying distribution and behavior of the robot team as a whole. In the proposed approach, the inputs to the multi-agent system, i.e., time-varying density and time-varying domain, are agnostic to the size of the system. Analytic expressions of surface and line integrals present in the control law are obtained under uniform density. The scalability of the proposed control strategy is explained and verified via numerical simulation. Experiments on real robots are used to test the proposed control law.
This paper investigates the online motion coordination problem for a group of mobile robots moving in a shared workspace. Based on the realistic assumptions that each robot is subject to both velocity and input constraints and can have only local vie w and local information, a fully distributed multi-robot motion coordination strategy is proposed. Building on top of a cell decomposition, a conflict detection algorithm is presented first. Then, a rule is proposed to assign dynamically a planning order to each pair of neighboring robots, which is deadlock-free. Finally, a two-step motion planning process that combines fixed-path planning and trajectory planning is designed. The effectiveness of the resulting solution is verified by a simulation example.
We study predictive control in a setting where the dynamics are time-varying and linear, and the costs are time-varying and well-conditioned. At each time step, the controller receives the exact predictions of costs, dynamics, and disturbances for th e future $k$ time steps. We show that when the prediction window $k$ is sufficiently large, predictive control is input-to-state stable and achieves a dynamic regret of $O(lambda^k T)$, where $lambda < 1$ is a positive constant. This is the first dynamic regret bound on the predictive control of linear time-varying systems. Under more assumptions on the terminal costs, we also show that predictive control obtains the first competitive bound for the control of linear time-varying systems: $1 + O(lambda^k)$. Our results are derived using a novel proof framework based on a perturbation bound that characterizes how a small change to the system parameters impacts the optimal trajectory.
This paper investigates the H2 and H-infinity suboptimal distributed filtering problems for continuous time linear systems. Consider a linear system monitored by a number of filters, where each of the filters receives only part of the measured output of the system. Each filter can communicate with the other filters according to an a priori given strongly connected weighted directed graph. The aim is to design filter gains that guarantee the H2 or H-infinity norm of the transfer matrix from the disturbance input to the output estimation error to be smaller than an a priori given upper bound, while all local filters reconstruct the full system state asymptotically. We provide a centralized design method for obtaining such H2 and H-infinity suboptimal distributed filters. The proposed design method is illustrated by a simulation example.
This paper considers a time-varying optimization problem associated with a network of systems, with each of the systems shared by (and affecting) a number of individuals. The objective is to minimize cost functions associated with the individuals pre ferences, which are unknown, subject to time-varying constraints that capture physical or operational limits of the network. To this end, the paper develops a distributed online optimization algorithm with concurrent learning of the cost functions. The cost functions are learned on-the-fly based on the users feedback (provided at irregular intervals) by leveraging tools from shape-constrained Gaussian Processes. The online algorithm is based on a primal-dual method, and acts effectively in a closed-loop fashion where: i) users feedback is utilized to estimate the cost, and ii) measurements from the network are utilized in the algorithmic steps to bypass the need for sensing of (unknown) exogenous inputs of the network. The performance of the algorithm is analyzed in terms of dynamic network regret and constraint violation. Numerical examples are presented in the context of real-time optimization of distributed energy resources.
