Konferenzveröffentlichung, Bibliographie

Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

The observation of multiple moving targets by cooperating mobile robots is a key problem in many security, surveillance and service applications. In essence, this problem is characterized by a tight coupling of target allocation and continuous trajectory planning. Optimal control of the multi-robot system generally neither permits to neglect physical motion dynamics nor to decouple or successively process target assignment and trajectory planning. In this paper, a numerically robust and stable model-predictive control strategy for solving the problem in the case of discrete-time double-integrator dynamics is presented. Optimization based on linear mixed logical dynamical system models allows for a flexible weighting of different aspects and optimal control inputs for settings of moderate size can be computed in real-time. By simulating sets of randomly generated situations, one can determine a maximum problem size solvable in real-time in terms of the number of considered robots, targets, and length of the prediction horizon. Based on this information, a decentralized control approach is proposed.
