Abstract A distributed control strategy of multi quadrotor UAV systems is proposed in this work to address area coverage in precision agriculture. It adopts a region-based control approach by restricting the motion of UAVs within a desired dynamical region with planned dynamics while providing collision avoidance between UAVs. Voronoi partitions that can be computed in a distributed way are used to determine UAVs positions within the moving region which provides a robust and scalable solution. Simulations are done using Gazebo and Robot Operating System (ROS) to evaluate the performance of the proposed method showing good results.
