title = "Rigid formation control for a group of UAVs with augmented models that account for input generator dynamics",
abstract = "The paper solves the trajectory tracking control problem for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) when the input generator dynamic effects are taking into considerations. Using the backstepping method we establish a controller for the considered model that ensures exponential convergence to a given reference trajectory. A two-mode control strategy is applied for increasing the domain of convergence. Then, using the concept of virtual vehicles we consider the application of the proposed controller for a group of UAVs in a rigid formation flight. Simulation results are demonstrated.",
