Abstract: Formation flying increasingly emerged as a vanguard force in executing diverse missions. This paper provides a finite-time distributed state observer for interconnected formation flight systems by information exchange. ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the problem of lateral thrust–aerodynamic force composite control for a class of hypersonic flight vehicles (HFVs) suffering from time-varying actuator failures and associated multisource uncertainty. ...

Abstract: This paper presents a reinforcement learning (RL)–based adaptive fault-tolerant control scheme for quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) subjected to external disturbances, input uncertainties, and structural uncertainties. ...
