Output Consensus Regulation for State-Unmeasurable Discrete-Time Multiagent Systems with External Disturbances

Abstract EN

This paper deals with the output consensus regulation problem for discrete-time multiagent systems with state-unmeasurable agents and external disturbances under directed communication network topologies.

Firstly, the mathematical model for the output consensus problem of discrete-time multiagent systems is deduced and formulated via making matrix transformation.

Then, based on state observers, a novel output consensus protocol with dynamic compensator which is used as observer for the exosystem is proposed to solve this problem.

Some knowledge of matrix theory and graph theory is introduced to design protocol parameters and the convergence of output consensus errors is proved.

Finally, a numerical simulation example is shown to verify the effectiveness of the proposed protocol design.
