Abstract：Maintaining a stable and reliable communication network in unmanned aerial vehicle swarm(UAVS)control has a significant impact on the collaborative execution of tasks by the system.In order to cope with potential network at-tacks such as deception attacks and Byzantine attacks in communication environments,this paper investigates the problem of cooperative construction of communication topology with tolerance for network intrusion for UAVS.Firstly,considering the isomorphism of UAVS nodes and the uniform and bounded communication radius,the communication topology con-struction problem is transformed into the design problem of UAVS formation control.Subsequently,based on the virtual structure strategy,a novel distributed lattice structure formation control method is proposed.Each UAVS node follows the movement strategy of the corresponding position in the lattice structure,and a potential field functions related to position distance is constructed to meet the task requirements of UAVS nodes approaching the root node and collision avoidance.The convergence of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through theoretical analysis and mathematical derivation.Fur-thermore,a novel formation algorithm is proposed to maintain the robustness of the network and expand the UAVS to a designated area.Finally,two simulation experiments are performed to validate the effectiveness of the proposed formation control strategies.
