Abstract

This work extends the theory on rigid frameworks for formation keeping in multi-agent systems. We introduce the H2 performance measure for relative sensing networks where the underlying sensing graph is rigid. The first contribution shows that the optimal H2 sensing graph must be a minimally rigid graph. We then describe a variation of the Herrenberg construction for generating rigid graphs in the plane by adding performance requirements and sensing constraints, leading to the H2 optimal vertex addition and edge splitting procedures. These results are then used to derive a centralized algorithm for generating an H2 optimally rigid relative sensing network.
