contents We consider the problem of navigating a nonlinear dynamical system from some initial set to some target set while avoiding collision with an unsafe set. We extend the concept of density function to control density function (CDF) for solving navigation problems with safety constraints. The occupancy-based interpretation of the measure associated with the density function is instrumental in imposing the safety constraints. The navigation problem with safety constraints is formulated as a quadratic program (QP) using CDF. The existing approach using the control barrier function (CBF) also formulates the navigation problem with safety constraints as QP. One of the main advantages of the proposed QP using CDF compared to QP formulated using CBF is that both the convergence/stability and safety can be combined and imposed using the CDF. Simulation results involving the Duffing oscillator and safe navigation of Dubin car models are provided to verify the main findings of the paper.
