Compared with the existing methods,the adopted two-layer network structure in this paper is generally directed, which is suitable for practical space missions. Firstly, distributed finite-time sliding-mode estimators and formation controllers in both layers are designed separately to improve the flexibility of the formation control system. By introducing the properties of affine transformation into formation control protocol design,the controllers can be used to track different time-varying target formation patterns. Besides, multilayer time-varying encirclements can be achieved with particular shapes to surround the moving target. In the sequel, by integrating adaptive neural networks and specialized artificial potential functions into backstepping controllers, the problems of uncertain Euler-Lagrange models, collision avoidance as well as formation reconfiguration are solved simultaneously. The stability of the proposed controllers is verified by the Lyapunov direct method. Finally, two simulation examples of triangle formation and more complex hexagon formation are presented to illustrate the feasibility of the theoretical results.展开更多

In order to find global optimal trajectories for target enclosing task with all constraints above, by integrating the collision threat and maneuver boundaries into a novel nonlinear cost functional, the studied target enclosing problem is described as a nonlinear nonzero-sum differential game. Further, to avoid iterative calculations caused by traditional nonlinear-game-solving methods, an approximate solution which can be constructed directly is designed. Then the approximate Nash equilibrium strategies can be educed by the constructive approximate solution for the proposed nonzero-sum game. Analysis shows that the proposed control strategies can asymptotically approach the exact one and can ensure a zero-error tracking of the enclosing configuration.Simulation results illustrate lower time costs and better enclosing accuracy while the collision avoidance and maneuver amplitude constraints are satisfied simultaneously.展开更多
