In the era of smart mobility, autonomous vehicles must coordinate safely and efficiently, particularly in urban settings where communication delays, cyber-attacks, and onboard faults are common. This project proposes a fault-tolerant and communication-aware control framework to ensure resilient formation control in multi-agent vehicle systems and to address these challenges. The proposed framework integrates robust and adaptive control techniques to handle real-time communication issues, actuator and sensor faults, and energy-aware operation. By validating through simulations and experimental setups, the project contributes to the reliable deployment of autonomous fleets in future smart cities.
