Abstract
A problem of control of the motion of mobile robots with a differential drive in a leader-follower formation is considered. The proposed method of structural synthesis allow one to form control inputs for robots-followers only on the basis of information about the relative positions of the followers and the leader without using the absolute values of the spatial coordinates of the robots. The algorithm efficiency is confirmed by results of numerical experiments.
