Energy-Optimized Consensus Formation Control for the Time-Delayed Bilateral Teleoperation System of UAVs by Hui-yu Sun, Guang-ming Song, Zhong Wei, Ying Zhang

“…Moreover, to reduce the communication complexity and energy dissipation of the formation, a top-down strategy of 3D optimal persistent graph is first proposed to optimize the formation topology. Under the optimized topology with environmental constraints, communication complexity and energy dissipation can be minimized while the rigid formation can be maintained and transformed persistently in the obstructed environment. …”
