It is shown that the feedback linearization technique along with a distance varied repulsive profile allows UAVs to converge to the invariant set of a known target location without colliding with other vehicles. Lyapunov stability analysis shows the conditions under which such systems are stable. Also a task assignment algorithm, which is a function of distance between the UAVs and the target, is proposed for dealing with multi-UAV and multi-target scenarios. 收起
