Finite-time Flocking of Multi-agent System with Input Saturation
Authors
Abstract:
In this paper a finite-time flocking of multi-agent system with input saturation is investigated. By introducing a new control protocol, it is show that speed and position of agents with double-integrator dynamics converge to the speed and position of leader in finite time. It is assumed that the graph between the agents is connected and that at least one agent is informed of the leader speed and position. It is shown that the agents do not collide under this control protocol and the graph remains connected. Further, conditions are provided by which the control signal level remains less than the limiting saturation range.

Flocking of Discrete-time Multi-Agent Systems with Predictive Mechanisms
For decades, scientists from various fields have been fascinated by flocking behavior for its wide engineering applications. Inspired by the predictive intelligence of bio-groups, in this paper we design a novel discrete-time model predictive control based flocking protocol, and investigate the role of predictive mechanisms in flocking of multi-agent systems by using mathematical analyses and n...
full textGlobal consensus for discrete-time multi-agent systems with input saturation constraints
In this paper, we consider the global consensus problem for discrete-time multi-agent systems with input saturation constraints under fixed undirected topologies. We first give necessary conditions for achieving global consensus via a distributed protocol based on relative state measurements of the agent itself and its neighboring agents. We then focus on two special cases, where the agent mode...
full textSynchronization of linear multi-agent systems under input saturation
This paper is concerned with state synchronization of linear agents subject to input saturation over a fixed undirected communication graph. We first derive a sufficient condition for achieving the synchronization via relative state feedback control law for any initial condition. Based on this analysis result, we present a linear matrix inequality (LMI) condition for designing the synchronizing...
full textMulti-agent flocking under topological interactions
In this paper, we consider a multi-agent system consisting of mobile agents with second-order dynamics. The communication network is determined by the so-called topological interaction rule: agents interact with a fixed number of their closest neighbors. This rule comes from observations of real flock of starlings. The non-symmetry of the interactions adds to the difficulty of the analysis. The...

This paper investigates the problem of coordinated tracking of a linear multi-agent system subject to actuator magnitude saturation and dead zone characteristic with input additive uncertainties and disturbances. Distributed consensus and swarm tracking protocols are developed from a low-and-high gain feedback approach. Under the assumption that each agent is asymptotically null controllable wi...
