Abstract

In this paper, the target aggregation is investigated for a multi-agent system consisting of second-order agents and multiple leaders. Sufficient conditions are proposed to make the agents approach the target set spanned by these moving leaders. With the condition on switching interconnection topologies, all mobile agents can asymptotically track the dynamical target set specified by multiple moving leaders with bounded error. Moreover, discussion on the case with static leaders is also given.
