Partial Component Consensus of Discrete-Time Multiagent Systems

Abstract EN

The multiagent system has the advantages of simple structure, strong function, and cost saving, which has received wide attention from different fields.

Consensus is the most basic problem in multiagent systems.

In this paper, firstly, the problem of partial component consensus in the first-order linear discrete-time multiagent systems with the directed network topology is discussed.

Via designing an appropriate pinning control protocol, the corresponding error system is analyzed by using the matrix theory and the partial stability theory.

Secondly, a sufficient condition is given to realize partial component consensus in multiagent systems.

Finally, the numerical simulations are given to illustrate the theoretical results.
