This book introduces the centralized robust H? team formation tracking control strategy of multi-UAV network system under intrinsic random fluctuation, time-varying delay and packet dropout in wireless communication, and external disturbance. A simple robust decentralized H? PID reference tracking network control strategy is introduced for practical applications of team formation of large-scale UAV under control saturation constraint, external disturbance and vortex coupling. It provides practical design procedures based on linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) solvable via LMI TOOLBOX in MATLAB®.

Features:

• Focusses on the stabilization of a QUAV under finite time switching model control (SMC)
• Discusses robustness control design for formation tracking in UAV networks
• Introduces different robust centralized and decentralized H? attack-tolerant observer-based reference team formation tracking control of large-scale UAVs
• Reviews practical case studies in each chapter to introduce the design procedures
• Includes design examples of team formation of 25 quadrotor UAVs and a team formation example of 5 hybrid quadrotor/biped robot sub-teams

This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in control and electrical engineering.
