A collision avoidance control algorithm for multiple unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)based on bidirectional network connection structure is proposed
which can effectively avoid collision among UAVs and between UAVs and obstacles to realize collaborative formation flight and complete the mission. In order to avoid collisions
the proposed consensus algorithm and the “leader-follower” control strategy are combined into formation control to ensure the convergence of formation. Three UAVs constitute the triangular formation as the control object
where the leader flight path is taken as the expected path and the followers track the leader to maintain the triangle formation flight. Safe distances should be kept between the UAVs and between the obstacle and the follower which is closest to the obstacle. In the horizontal plane
the leader and followers should have the same forward speed and heading angle rate
while in the vertical direction
they keep the relative distance constant. This consensus collision avoidance algorithm for multiple UAVs is based on the artificial potential field method
and simulation experiment verifies its validity.
