Leader-Following Formation Control and Collision Avoidance of Second-Order Multi-Agent Systems With Time Delay

In this article, the formation control problem has been considered for second-order multi-agent system with time delay. The involved controller is divided into two parts. The first part is to design the leader-following and adaptive control strategies that are utilized to achieve the specified forma...
