Abstract

Formation control with leader follower approach and tracking trajectory with comparing constant and non-constant velocity of the leader is proposed in this paper. Non-constant velocity aim to solve the problem of time requirement to achieve asymptotic tracking error in velocity constant issue of the leader. Controller is designed based on mobile robot kinematics model. Mobile robot used similar type of model and characteristics. Trajectory information used to control the leader's velocity. Position and velocity of the leader used to determine the follower movement velocity. Follower tracks the virtual position to make a rigid formation. The experiment was carried out using two scenarios. First, leader moves linearly toward a destination point, second, leader moves along a circular trajectory. Each scenario analyzed and compared between constant and non-constant velocity of the leader. The experimental results show leader's velocity with a non-constant value has a slightly slower than constant velocity to achieve formation error that is close to zero. However, the leader's velocity with a non-constant value has a faster time to achieve tracking trajectory error that is close to zero.
