Abstract:	This paper aims to investigate the three-dimensional formation flocking of multi-agent system with leader-follower structure. Based on the nearest neighbor interaction rules, a kind of distributed control algorithm is proposed, which enables all the agents asymptotically converge to fly with the same velocity and approach the expected formation with their neighbors, provided that the initial interaction network of the system is leader-follower connected. Numerical simulations are carried on the multi-agent system to validate the functionality of the proposed algorithm.
