Distributed Cooperative Control of Multiple Vehicles Considering Communication Packets Losses by TAN Yan, HU Yunqing, YUAN Xiwen, BIAN Yougang, QIN Zhaobo, XU Biao, HU Manjiang

“…Finally, we derives a sufficient condition to ensure the asymptotic stability of platoon, i.e., the inequality of the weight coefficient matrix of the cost function. The numerical simulation results show that when the designed vehicle platoon system model and distributed controller are used, and the weight coefficient matrix of the cost function satisfies the inequality conditions, if the probability of packet loss increases, the convergence time of the queuing tracking error will be prolonged, and the tracking error will increase. …”
