This paper studies a coordinated transportation problem of a group of unmanned ground vehicles(UGVs). These ground vehicles belong to two categories: master vehicles and slave vehicles. A two-step strategy is proposed to solve this problem. First, let the master vehicles move along ideal trajectories. Then, let the slave vehicles move into the area surrounded by master vehicles and move together with them. By the two-step strategy, the coordinated transportation problem is divided into a tracking problem and a containment problem. A P In-type tracking protocol and a P In-type containment protocol(P and I stand for Proportion and Integration, respectively;Inimplies that the protocol includes high-order integral terms) are proposed to solve these two problems. It is proved that the coordinated transportation problem can be solved by two proposed protocols with proper parameters if for each follower there exists at least one leader which has a directed path to this follower. Finally, a simulation example is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.

Hydro-viscous speed clutch(HVC) is a central control element of the driver system. Because of nonlinearities and hysteresis of the clutch, the setting of control parameters has a significant impact on the performance of the speed control system. This paper studies the HVC of a vehicle temperature control system, and analyzes the parameters tuning method of a PID controller for the closed-loop control system. By employing a two-storey optimized control framework, the resulting model from identification can be used to complete the control parameters auto-tuning. Simulation and experimental results have showed that this auto-tuning method can obtain a group of parameters in terms of a desired performance index, which guarantees the balance of dynamic characteristics, stability and anti-jamming in closed-loop system.

This paper studies the leader-following consensus problem of discrete-time generic linear multi-agent systems. Agents share their states with their neighbors via a noisy communication network. An algorithm is proposed for the leader-following consensus problem where the time-varying gain is employed to attenuate noises. Different from most previous results where all agents have to use the same time-varying gain, each agent can have its own time-varying gain. Sufficient conditions for solving the mean square leader-following consensus problem are obtained: 1) the communication topology graph has a spanning tree;2) the summation of every time-varying gain from zero to infinite is infinite;3) all time-varying gains are infinitesimal of the same order as time goes to infinity;and 4) all roots of a so-called "parameter polynomial" are inside the unit circle. Finally, a simulation example is given to verify the theoretical results.

Research on multi-agent systems has attracted much attention in the past two decades, and numerous results have been obtained. Its widespread applications include spacecraft,mobile robots, sensor networks, etc. Most previous research works on multi-agent systems studied the first- and second-order dynamics. However, in engineering, many systems are modeled by higher-order dynamics. This paper reviews the major results and progress in distributed high-order multi-agent *** the review, a short discussion section is included to summarize the existing research and propose several promising research directions along with some open problems that are deemed important for further investigations.

In this paper, a human robot shared control strategy is developed and tested on a Baxter robot. Using the proposed method, the human operator only needs to consider the motion of the end-effector of the manipulator, while the manipulator will avoid obstacle by itself without sacrificing the end effector motion performance. An improved obstacle avoidance strategy based on the joint space redundancy of the manipulator is designed. A dimension reduction method is presented to solve the over defined problem of avoiding velocity to achieve a more efficient use of the redundancy. By employment of an artificial parallel system of the teleoperate manipulator and the task switching weighting factor, the proposed control method enable the robot restoring back to the commanded pose smoothly when the obstacle is removed. By implementing the dimension reduction method, the trajectory of each joint of the manipulator can be controlled at the same time to achieve the restoring task. Thus, the proposed control method can eliminate the impact of the obstacle on the remaining task. Satisfactory experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Special Re-use TDMA(STDMA) emerges as a promising channel access technique for providing Quality of Service(QoS) guarantees in multi-hop ad Hoc networks such as community mesh and sensor networks. The contention-free channel access combined with special reuse of the channel provides significant benefits in the energy/throughput trade-off. However, the protocol may introduce scheduling delay if, on the same path, an outbound link on a router is scheduled to transmit before an inbound link on that router. The total scheduling delay can be quite large since it accumulates at every hop on a path. This paper presents a method to solve this problem to improve the performance of the network system. Compared to the origin STDMA protocol, simulation results present us the superior performance of the proposed algorithm.
