| contents | We consider a problem of optimal swarm tracking which can be formulated as a tracking problem for distributions in the Wasserstein space. Optimal solutions to this problem are non-causal and require knowing the time-trajectory of the reference distribution in advance. We propose a scheme where these non-causal solutions can be used together with a predictive model for the reference to achieve causal tracking of a priori-unknown references. We develop a model-predictive control scheme built around the simple case where the reference is constant-in-time. A computational algorithm based on particle methods and discrete optimal mass transport is presented, and numerical simulations are provided for various classes of reference signals. The results demonstrate that the proposed control algorithm achieves reasonable performance even when using simple predictive models. |
