This paper proposes a novel distributed interval observer design for linear time-invariant (LTI) discrete-time systems subject to bounded disturbances. In the proposed observer algorithm, each agent in a networked group exchanges…

This paper addresses the problem of consensus tracking with fixed-time convergence, for leader-follower multi-agent systems with double-integrator dynamics, where only a subset of followers has access to the state of the leader. The control…

Connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) have great potential to improve road transportation systems. Most existing strategies for CAVs' longitudinal control focus on downstream traffic conditions, but neglect the impact of CAVs' behaviors…

This paper presents an experimental study of a path-tracking framework for autonomous vehicles in which the lateral control command is applied to a dynamic control point along the wheelbase. Instead of enforcing a fixed reference at either…

Vehicle platooning using connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) has attracted considerable attention. In this paper, we address the problem of optimal coordination of CAV platoons at a highway on-ramp merging. We present a single-level…

The anticipated launch of fully autonomous vehicles presents an opportunity to develop and implement novel traffic management systems. Intersections are one of the bottlenecks for urban traffic, and thus offer tremendous potential for…

Car following models have been widely applied and made remarkable achievements in traffic engineering. However, the traffic micro-simulation accuracy of car following models in a platoon level, especially during traffic oscillations, still…

This paper is concerned with the study of bidirectionally coupled platoon systems. The case considered is when the vehicles are heterogeneous and the coupling can be nonlinear and asymmetric. For such systems, a sufficient condition for…

The basic module for the solution of the minimum time optimal control of a car-like vehicle is herein presented. The vehicle is subject to the effect of laminar (linear) and aerodynamic (quadratic) drag, taking into account the asymmetric…

Motivated by real-world applications of unmanned aerial vehicles, this paper introduces a decentralized control mechanism to guide steering control of autonomous agents maneuvering in the vicinity of multiple moving entities (e.g. other…

This paper studies the problem of designing sampled-data observers and observer-based, sampled-data, output feedback stabilizers for systems with both discrete and distributed, state and output time-delays. The obtained results can be…

This paper investigates control laws allowing mobile, autonomous agents to optimally position themselves on the line for distributed sensing in a nonuniform field. We show that a simple static control law, based only on local measurements…

Robust state estimation in coupled dynamical systems depends critically not only on sensor quality but on the structural alignment between observation channels and the system's intrinsic dynamics. This paper develops a rigorous framework…

This paper introduces a novel stabilization control strategy for linear time-invariant systems affected by known time-varying measurement delays and matched unknown nonlinear disturbances, which may encompass actuator faults. It is…

This paper develops an adaptive observation-based efficient reinforcement learning (RL) approach for systems with uncertain drift dynamics. A novel concurrent learning adaptive extended observer (CL-AEO) is first designed to jointly…

This paper presents a novel dynamic coverage control algorithm allowing a group of robots to track an optimal-deployment configuration for arbitrary time-varying density functions. Building on singular perturbation theory, the proposed…

This work presents a novel framework for the formation control of multiple autonomous ground vehicles in an on-road environment. Unique challenges of this problem lie in 1) the design of collision avoidance strategies with obstacles and…

Different from previous models based on scatter theory and random matrix theory, a new interpretation of the observed log-normal type time-headway distribution of vehicles is presented in this paper. Inspired by the well known Galton Board,…

This is the last part of four series papers, aiming at stabilization for signal-input-signaloutput (SISO) linear finite-dimensional systems corrupted by general input disturbances. A new observer, referred to as Extended Dynamics Observer…

A path tracking control system is chosen as the proof-of-concept demonstration application in this paper. A disturbance observer (DOB) is embedded within the steering to path error automated driving loop to handle uncertain parameters such…
