چکیده

In this article, we investigate the controllability of multi-agent systems with leaders as control inputs, where the interconnection is directed and weighted. We employ weight-balanced partition to classify the interconnection graphs, and study the controllable subspaces with given nontrivial weight-balanced partition. We also provide two necessary and sufficient graph conditions on structural controllability and strong structural controllability. Moreover, we consider the effect of the zero row-sum restrictions of the system matrices on structural controllability.

Non-Fragility and Partial Controllability of Multi-Agent Systems

Controllability of multi-agent systems is determined by the interconnection topologies. In practice, losing agents can change the topologies of multi-agent systems, which may affect the controllability. This paper studies non-fragility of controllability influenced by losing agents. In virtue of the concept of cutsets, necessary and sufficient conditions are established from a graphic perspecti...

Adaptive Distributed Consensus Control for a Class of Heterogeneous and Uncertain Nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems

This paper has been devoted to the design of a distributed consensus control for a class of uncertain nonlinear multi-agent systems in the strict-feedback form. The communication between the agents has been described by a directed graph. Radial-basis function neural networks have been used for the approximation of the uncertain and heterogeneous dynamics of the followers as well as the effect o...

Adaptive Consensus Control for a Class of Non-affine MIMO Strict-Feedback Multi-Agent Systems with Time Delay

In this paper, the design of a distributed adaptive controller for a class of unknown non-affine MIMO strict-feedback multi agent systems with time delay has been performed under a directed graph. The controller design is based on dynamic surface control  method. In the design process, radial basis function neural networks (RBFNNs) were employed to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions.

Adaptive Leader-Following and Leaderless Consensus of a Class of Nonlinear Systems Using Neural Networks

This paper deals with leader-following and leaderless consensus problems of high-order multi-input/multi-output (MIMO) multi-agent systems with unknown nonlinear dynamics in the presence of uncertain external disturbances. The agents may have different dynamics and communicate together under a directed graph. A distributed adaptive method is designed for both cases. The structures of the contro...

Interconnection topologies for multi-agent coordination under leader-follower framework

In this paper, the formation control of networks of multiple agents is studied via controllability, where the network is under leader-follower structure with some agents taking the leader role and others being followers interconnected via neighbor-based rule. It is shown that the controllability of a multi-agent system is uniquely determined by the topology structure of interconnection graph, a...
