Leader-following consensus of multiple linear systems under switching topologies: An averaging method

Wei Ni, Xiaoli Wang, Chun Xiong (2012)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

The leader-following consensus of multiple linear time invariant (LTI) systems under switching topology is considered. The leader-following consensus problem consists of designing for each agent a distributed protocol to make all agents track a leader vehicle, which has the same LTI dynamics as the agents. The interaction topology describing the information exchange of these agents is time-varying. An averaging method is proposed. Unlike the existing results in the literatures which...

Flocking control of multi-agent systems with application to nonholonomic multi-robots

Qin Li, Zhong-Ping Jiang (2009)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper, we revisit the artificial potential based approach in the flocking control for multi-agent systems, where our main concerns are migration and trajectory tracking problems. The static destination or, more generally, the moving reference point is modeled by a virtual leader, whose information is utilized by some agents, called active agents (AA), for the controller design. We study a decentralized flocking controller for the case where the set of AAs is fixed. Some results...

Finite-time boundedness and stabilization of switched linear systems

Haibo Du, Xiangze Lin, Shihua Li (2010)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper, finite-time boundedness and stabilization problems for a class of switched linear systems with time-varying exogenous disturbances are studied. Firstly, the concepts of finite-time stability and finite-time boundedness are extended to switched linear systems. Then, based on matrix inequalities, some sufficient conditions under which the switched linear systems are finite-time bounded and uniformly finite-time bounded are given. Moreover, to solve the finite-time stabilization...
