Abstract
A decentralized cooperative strategy for cooperative search by a team of mobile agents (of particular interest is the case of unmanned air vehicles) is presented, where cooperation is accomplished by having each agent take into account the other agents´ possible actions. The preliminary associated analysis shows that the proposed strategy guarantees a complete global search of the environment, gives a lower bound on the search time and shows that it is finite.
