This paper deals with formation control problems for multi-agent systems by using iterative learning control (ILC) design approaches. Distributed formation ILC algorithms are presented to enable all agents in directed graphs to achieve the desired relative formations perfectly over a finite-time interval. It is shown that not only asymptotic stability but also monotonic convergence of multi-agent formation ILC can be accomplished, and the convergence conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities can be simultaneously established. The derived results are also applicable to multi-agent systems that are subject to stochastic disturbances and model uncertainties. Furthermore, the feasibility of convergence conditions and the effect of communication delays are discussed for the proposed multi-agent formation ILC algorithms. Simulation results are given for uncertain multi-agent systems to verify the theoretical study. Copyright (c) 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
