Leader-Following Bounded Consensus and Multiconsensus of Multiagent Systems

Abstract EN

This paper investigates the problem of leader-following consensus and multiconsensus of multiagent systems.

A leader-following and bounded consensus protocol via impulsive control for multiagent systems is proposed by using sampled position and velocity data.

Consensus and multiconsensus commutative evolution stimulated by varying intelligence degrees of each agent can be achieved to avoid obstacles.

Especially, the multiconsensus leader-following can be obtained without grouping the multiagent networks in advance.

The necessary and sufficient condition is given to the leader-following bounded consensus tracking of the system by using the Hurwitz criterion and properties of the Laplacian matrix.

A simulation is provided to verify the availability of the proposed impulsive control protocol.

Furthermore, the result can be applied in obstacle avoidance and round up of target by regulating the intelligence degrees.
