Rapid advances in communication technology have created the possibility of large-scale
control systems with distribution of control tasks among several processors via communication …

Hybrid dynamical systems, both continuous and discrete dynamics and variables, have
attracted considerable interest recently. This emerging area is found at the interface of control …

We review a range of techniques related to navigation of unmanned vehicles through unknown
environments with obstacles, especially those that rigorously ensure collision avoidance (…

Most of the distributed protocols for multi-agent consensus assume that the agents are
mutually cooperative and “trustful,” and so the couplings among the agents bring the values of …

We study a linear discrete-time partially observed system perturbed by white noises. The
observations are transmitted to the estimator via communication channels with irregular …

The paper addresses both detection and stabilization problems involving communication
errors and capacity constraints. Discrete-time partially observed linear systems are studied. …

We present a sliding mode based strategy for a unicycle-like robot navigation and guidance.
The proposed navigation law is applied to the problems of patrolling the border of a moving …

… The first of them holds while the argument S ≔ d ̇ + χ ( d − d 0 ) of the sgn function from (4)
is nonzero. During this phase, sgn S is not altered due to continuity of S and so the vehicle …

We consider a single Dubins-like mobile robot traveling with a constant longitudinal speed
in a planar region supporting an unknown field distribution. A single sensor provides the …

We consider a single planar non-holonomic Dubins-car like robot traveling with a constant
and given longitudinal speed and controlled by the angular velocity, which is upper limited in …
