Abstract :
This paper presents modified formulations of coupled-constraints consensus based bundle algorithm to resolve the cooperative transportation problem. Formulation frameworks for a cooperative transportation mission are suggested. Suggested frameworks are deal with various types of constraints and characteristics of cooperative transportation mission. In this paper, several modifications on reward function and arrival time calculation are suggested to handle the constraints of cooperative transportation mission.
