2009 American Control Conference
The control law employs extremum seeking, which is a non-model based method that has been used recently in "source seeking" control for nonholonomic mobile robots. ...
We present a method of locomotion control for underwater vehicles which are propelled by a periodic deformation of the vehicle body, similar to the way a fish moves. ...
Section IV presents the specifics of a three link body moving in a fluid, introduces an extremum seeking control law, and presents the results of applying the control to the fish model. ...

Gradient Free Cooperative Seeking of a Moving Source
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
We propose a composite control law, blending extremum seeking with formation control in order to converge to the extrema faster by minimising the gradient estimation error. ...
In this paper, we consider the optimisation of a time varying scalar field by a network of agents with no gradient information. ...
In [9, 38] , extremum seeking with a single agent is investigated relying only on the measurements of the scalar field, without usage of the agent's position. ...
