Abstract
This paper considers decentralized contingency MPC for multi-agent control under a state-only information pattern, with particular focus on limited sensing and plug-and-play operation. The objective is to retain recursive feasibility, safety, and Lyapunov-type convergence while reducing conservatism in local interaction handling. The framework relies on agent-wise fallback regions (safe sets) in which a feasible contingency maneuver to a safe equilibrium is always available. A novel safe-set update mechanism is introduced that supports less conservative decentralized interaction while preserving the underlying guarantees. This, in turn, enables memory-free local interaction and finite sensing ranges without requiring agents to reconstruct the exact neighbor geometry. The resulting scheme remains fully decentralized and preserves the shared-first-input contingency MPC structure. Theoretical guarantees and simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the approach in dense multi-agent scenarios.
