Team Cooperation in a Network of Multi-Vehicle Unmanned Systems develops a framework for modeling and control of a network of multi-agent unmanned systems in a cooperative manner and with consideration of non-ideal and practical considerations. The main focus of this book is the development of synthesis-based algorithms rather than on conventional analysis-based approaches to the team cooperation, specifically the team consensus problems. The authors provide a set of modified design-based consensus algorithms whose optimality is verified through introduction of performance indices. This book also: Provides synthesis-based methodology for team cooperation Introduces a consensus-protocol optimized performance index� Offers comparisons for use of proper indices in measuring team performance Analyzes and predicts� performance of� previously designed consensus algorithms Analyses and predicts team behavior in the presence of non-ideal considerations such as actuator anomalies and faults as well as the evolutions in the structure of the information exchange Team Cooperation in a Network of Multi-Vehicle Unmanned Systems is an ideal book for researchers as well as graduate-level university students who desire to work in the area of networked unmanned systems.
