چکیده
This paper deals with the double integrator consensus problem. The objective is the design of a new consensus algorithm for continuous-time multi-agent systems. The dynamic of agents is assumed to be of double integrator type. The proposed algorithm considers that there are no sensors to measure the velocity of the agents. Thus the classical double integrator consensus algorithm leads to an oscillatory behavior if the communication graph is undirected and to instability if the graph is directed. The novel algorithm proposes to sampled, in an appropriate manner, part of the multi-agent systems state such that the algorithm converges. An expression of the consensus equilibrium is provided. Some examples are provided to show the efficiency of the new algorithm.

Fixed-time consensus of multiple double-integrator systems under directed topologies: A motion-planning approach
This paper investigates the fixed-time consensus problem under directed topologies. By using a motion-planning approach, a class of distributed fixed-time algorithms are developed for a multi-agent system with double-integrator dynamics. In the context of the fixed-time consensus, we focus on both directed fixed and switching topologies. Under the directed fixed topology, a novel class of distr...
متن کاملOn consensus algorithms for double-integrator dynamics without velocity measurements and with input constraints
This note deals with consensus strategy design for double-integrator dynamics. Specifically, we consider the case where the control inputs are required to be a priori bounded and the velocity (second state) is not available for feedback. Two different design methods are proposed. First, based on the auxiliary system approach, we propose a consensus algorithm that extends some of the existing re...
متن کاملConsensus for Agents with Double Integrator Dynamics in Heterogeneous Networks
This paper studies the convergence properties of consensus algorithms for agents with double integrator dynamics communicating over networks modelled by undirected graphs. The positions and velocities of the agents are shared along heterogeneous, i.e. different, undirected communication networks. The main result is that consensus can be achieved, even though the networks along which position an...
متن کاملA Continuous Control for Stabilizing the Extended Nonholonomic Double Integrator: Theory and Simulation Results
The extended nonholonomic double integrator (ENDI) cannot be asymptotically stabilized by a continuous and time-invariant feedback controller since it violates the Brockett’s condition. In this paper, a new continuous control scheme is proposed to stabilize the ENDI system without drift. The dynamics of an ENDI system is enlarged to a higher dimensional space where a continuous but time-varying...
متن کاملGeometric Integration Algorithms on Homogeneous Manifolds
Given an ordinary differential equation on a homogeneous manifold, one can construct a “geometric integrator” by determining a compatible ordinary differential equation on the associated Lie group, using a Lie group integration scheme to construct a discrete time approximation of the solution curves in the group, and then mapping the discrete trajectories onto the homogeneous manifold using the...
