摘要
For solving the problem of multi-UAVs (multi-unmanned aerial vehicles) cooperative obstacle avoidance in dynamic environment, a method for controller design in combination with the extended Kalman filter (EKF) and model predictive control (MPC) was proposed. Firstly, distributed architecture for UAV cooperative obstacle avoidance, the motion model of UAV and the communication topology were established, respectively. Then the EKF algorithm was used to predict the trajectory of dynamic obstacle, and an information compensation rule was designed. Afterwards, based on the model predictive control (MPC) method, the controller for UAV obstacle avoidance was designed. The results show that the proposed EKF method can predict the trajectory of dynamic obstacle correctly, and that the cooperation between the UAVs can reduce the predictive errors effectively. © 2016, Central South University of Technology.
