Multi-Object Distributed Control of Vehicle Platoon System

In this paper, vehicle platoon spatially invariant interconnected systems are modeled as multidimensional systems by introducing spatial variables and spatial shift operators. The multi-object distributed H<sub<2</sub<／H<sub<∞</sub< control method is investigated based on the model. Distributed output feedback controllers, which have the same structure as the plants, are designed to ensure that the systems have both good dynamic characteristic and system outputs to be as little as possible. Finally, vehicle platoon interconnected system is simulated by mass-spring model and the results demonstrate the correctness of the model and effectiveness of the method.
