Group Consensus Tracking Control of Dynamical Multi-Agent Systems with Time Delays via Pinning Leader-Follower Approach
Authors: Kepeng Han, Dongmei Xie
Abstract: In this paper, we focus on studying the group consensus tracking issue of single-integrator and second integrator multi-agent systems with fixed communication topology and time delays under a pinning control protocol, respectively. For the former, We aim to propose some necessary and/or sufficient group consensus tracking conditions by using Lyapunov-Krasovskii function. For the latter, the observer-based bounded group consensus tracking control problem of second-order multi-agent systems in a disturbance environment is investigated, and some sufficient bounded group consensus tracking criteria are established. Moreover, this paper proposes a method of graph refactoring to find the relationship between the communication topology graph and matrix. Finally, numerical simulations are given to verify the effectiveness of our theoretical results.
