Collision-free guidance control of multiple small UAVs based on distributed model predictive control

In this paper, collision-free guidance control of multiple small unmanned aerial vehicles (SUAVs) is designed. Collision avoidance of the SUAVs should be considered in the control system design for safe operation. Therefore, a guidance control system using a distributed model predictive control (DMP...
