Abstract

We address the problem of simultaneously covering an environment and tracking intruders (SCAT). The problem is translated to the task of covering environments with time-varying density functions under the locational optimization framework. This allows for coupling the basic subtasks: task assignment, coverage, and tracking. A decentralized controller with guaranteed exponential convergence is devised. The SCAT algorithm is verified in simulations and on a team of robots. © 2009 Springer-Verlag.
