Consensus control for leader-following multi-agent systems with measurement noises

<正> This work is concerned with consensus control for a class of leader-following multi-agentsystems (MASs).The information that each agent received is corrupted by measurement noises.Toreduce the impact of noises on consensus,time-varying consensus gains are adopted,based on whichconsensus protocols are designed.By using the tools of stochastic analysis and algebraic graph theory,asufficient condition is obtained for the protocol to ensure strong mean square consensus under the fixedtopologies.This condition is shown to be necessary and sufficient in the noise-free case.Furthermore,by using a common Lyapunov function,the result is extended to the switching topology case.     

Consensus control design for multi-agent systems using relative output feedback

This paper studies the consensus problem of multi-agent systems in which all agents are modeled by a general linear system. The authors consider the case where only the relative output feedback between the neighboring agents can be measured. To solve the consensus problem, the authors first construct a static relative output feedback control under some mild constraints on the system model. Then the authors use an observer based approach to design a dynamic relative output feedback control. If the adjacent graph of the system is undirected and connected or directed with a spanning tree, with the proposed control laws, the consensus can be achieved. The authors note that with the observer based approach, some information exchange between the agents is needed unless the associated adjacent graph is completely connected.

New criteria on delayed state feedback stabilization for stochastic systems with time-varying delay

The problems of robust exponential stability in mean square and delayed state feedback stabilization for uncertain stochastic systems with time-varying delay are studied.By using Jensen’s integral inequality and combining with the free weighting matrix approach,new delay-dependent stability conditions and delayed state feedback stabilization criteria are obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities.Meanwhile,the proposed delayed state feedback stabilization criteria are more convenient in application than the existing ones since fewer tuning parameters are involved.Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.     

Leader-following coordination of multi-agent systems with information feedback

Based on the strategy of information feedback from followers to the leader, flocking control of a group of agents with a leader is studied. The leader tracks a pre-defined trajectory and at the same time the leader uses the feedback information from followers to the leader to modify its motion. The advantage of this control scheme is that it reduces the tracking errors and improves the robustness of the team cohesion to followers’ faults. The results of simulation are provided to illustrate that information feedback can improve the performance of the system.     

Event-triggered average-consensus of multi-agent systems with weighted and direct topology

This paper investigates the average-consensus problem of multi-agent systems with direct and weighted topologies.Event-triggered control laws are adopted so as to reduce the frequency of individual control updating since the agents may be resource-limited in many real systems.The discrete time instants where the events are triggered are determined by a trigger function with respect to a certain measurement error.A centralized average-consensus protocol is proposed first for networks with fixed interaction topology,the stability and influencing factors of which are also analyzed.The design of trigger functions for networks with variable topology is also discussed.Then the results are extended to the decentralized counterpart,in which agents require only the information of their neighbors.Numerical examples are also provided that demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
