The invention provides an unmanned aerial vehicle-unmanned vehicle combined formation cooperative control method and
system, and relates to the technical field of vehicle-vehicle cooperation, and the method comprises the steps: taking a virtual unmanned aerial vehicle as a leader, taking the unmanned aerial vehicle and the unmanned vehicle as followers in a unified manner, setting a fixed formation offset for each follower, and defining a communication topological relation based on a
graph theory; the method comprises the following steps: acquiring an actual measurement
state vector of a sensor in real time,
processing a current
estimation state through a constructed
radial basis function neural network observer, outputting a disturbance
estimation value in combination with a weight matrix, updating the
estimation state according to a core equation, and judging whether to update the weight matrix or not according to an observation error; calculating the expected state of the follower according to the reference trajectory of the leader and the fixed formation offset, calculating the formation error, constructing an
event trigger communication condition, judging whether the condition is met or not, enabling the follower to interact the state and the error according to the communication topology only when the condition is met, or else, continuing to use the previous trigger data; and finally, current control input of the follower is calculated through a distributed control law.
