The design process is divided into two steps. Firstly, an adaptive tracking controller is designed for the dynamic leading vehicle. And then, the distributed adaptive controllers are established for followers. Moreover, the predictor technique is used to improve the estimate performance of the adaptive law, and the total disturbance is approximated and compensated by the variable gain nonlinear extended state observers(NESOs) driven by the estimation error.
