Quantised consensus of heterogeneous multi‐agent systems
Yunru Zhu, Yuanshi Zheng, Long Wang · IET Control Theory and Applications · 2015
In this study, the consensus problem of heterogeneous multi‐agent systems with quantised interactions is investigated. Distributed control laws are proposed for heterogeneous multi‐agent systems by using uniform and logarithmic quantisers, respectively. Based on graph theory and non‐smooth analysis, it is shown that the heterogeneous multi‐agent system can reach consensus with logarithmic quantisers. For uniform quantisers, some convergence results are also derived. Simulation examples are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
