Synchronization of linear agents with input/output constraints
Kiyotsugu Takaba · IFAC-PapersOnLine · 2017
This paper is concerned with distributed cooperative control of linear agents with constraints on the amplitudes of inputs and outputs. We derive a condition for achieving both state synchronization and input/output constraints for the linear agents over an undirected communication graph. We develop a synthesis method of the desired state feedback gain in terms of linear matrix inequalities with the aid of invariant ellipsoids. The desired feedback gain can be efficiently obtained by solving a certain convex optimization independently of the number of agents.
