چکیده
Group consensus problems of multi-agent systems in directed networks with fixed and switching topologies are addressed in this note. Under mild assumptions, necessary and/or sufficient conditions of group consensus are derived, based on algebraic graph theories and matrix theories. For the fixed topology case, the group consensus can be guaranteed by the Hurwitz stability of coefficient matrices. For the switching topology case, the group consensus is proved to be equivalent to the asymptotical stability of a class of switched linear systems under arbitrary switching signal. A simulation result is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Robust Consensus Problem of Data-sampled Networked Multi-agent Systems with Delay and Noise
This paper proposes an observer-based control strategy for networked multi-agent systems with timevarying communication delays and random white noises under both fixed topology and Bernoulli switching topology. First, a queuing mechanism is introduced and thus a team of agents can be modeled as a system with constant delay. Then, using the system transformation method, the robust mean-square co...
متن کاملAdaptive Neural Network Method for Consensus Tracking of High-Order Mimo Nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems
This paper is concerned with the consensus tracking problem of high order MIMO nonlinear multi-agent systems. The agents must follow a leader node in presence of unknown dynamics and uncertain external disturbances. The communication network topology of agents is assumed to be a fixed undirected graph. A distributed adaptive control method is proposed to solve the consensus problem utilizing re...
متن کاملAlmost Decouplability of any Directed Weighted Network Topology
This paper introduces a conception that any weighted directed network topology is almost decouplable, which can help to transform the topology into a similar form being composed of uncoupled vertices, and thus reduce the complexity of analysis for networked dynamical systems. As an example of its application, the consensus problem of linear multi-agent systems with time-varying network topologi...

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.
