Continuification-based control of large multiagent systems in a ring

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a method to control large-scale multiagent systems swarming in a ring. Specifically, we use a continuification-based approach that transforms the microscopic, agent-level description of the system dynamics into a macroscopic, continuum-level representation, which we employ to synthesize a control action towards a desired distribution of the agents. The continuum-level control action is then discretized at the agent-level in order to practically implement it. To confirm the effectiveness and the robustness of the proposed approach, we complement theoretical derivations with a series of numerical simulations.
