This article investigates the real-time localization problem of dynamic multiagent systems with repetitive operation characteristics under directed graph. A distributed localization estimation algorithm based on iterative learning is proposed. The barycentric coordinates calculated based on the relative distance are used to estimate the real coordinates of the agent. Different from the traditional estimation methods along the time axis, the proposed method utilizes the information of iteration axis simultaneously. In this method, the current estimation coordinates are updated by using the estimation coordinates of the same sampling time in previous iteration, the estimation accuracy is improved, and the velocity constraint is removed. Additionally, the real-time localization problem of dynamic multiagent systems under arbitrary deployment is concerned. An improved distributed localization estimation algorithm with signed coefficients based on iterative learning is proposed. Meanwhile, the results are also extended to the localization estimation of multiagent systems with arbitrary deployment in 3-D space. By introducing Richardson iteration and infinite norm, the global asymptotic convergence of the proposed methods is guaranteed. Finally, numerical simulations and the Qbot-2e robot experiment are provided to show the effectiveness and validity of the obtained results.
