Embodiment Construction

[0115] See figure 1 , the effectiveness of the method proposed in the present invention is verified below through a specific example of UAV swarm finite-time affine formation control. The concrete steps of this method are as follows:

[0116] Step 1: Initialize

[0117] In three-dimensional space, the initial flight states of n=9 UAVs are randomly generated, including the spatial position p 1 =[-1.64,2.35,14.77] T m, p 2 =[-0.17,1.84,11.76] T m, p 3 =[0.73,2.39,7.36] T m, p 4 =[-0.87,1.02,7] T m, p 5 =[-1.09,-0.58,10.71] T m, p 6 =[-2.82,-1.60,11.58] T m, p 7 =[-1.51,0.52,5.90] T m, p 8 =[-1.09,1.65,7.10] T m and p 9 =[-0.54,1.71,14.03] T m, airspeed V i =10m / s, heading angle ψ i = 0rad and altitude change rate h i =0m / s, where the subscript i represents the serial number of the drone. The maximum simulation time and sampling time are respectively set to T max = 35s and T s = 0.01s.
