Abstract :
Formation control of multi-agent system is a question with practical significance. A new control law based on potential function is presented, which can effectively make the agents with any initial position reach the desired formation and desired target. To make the system obtain the anticipation, proper potential functions related to the agents and the object are chosen. The stability analysis and simulation are made in the end.
