Abstract
In this paper, the surrounding control problem of a group of non-identical agents is considered, where a team of followers achieves an equidistant distributed formation to surround a team of moving leaders. An adaptive design method is presented for multi-agent systems where the dynamics of agents are supposed to be nonlinear with unknown parameters. First, an estimator for the center of the leaders is introduced. Then, two distributed adaptive controllers based on the estimated center are proposed for each follower. The stability and parameter convergence of the proposed protocols are shown by using algebraic graph theory and Lyapunov theory. Finally, a numerical example is provided to validate the theoretical results.
