Controller-based observer design for distributed consensus of multi-agent systems with fault and delay
Maryam Fattahi, Ahmad Afshar · Journal of Control and Decision · 2018
The object of this article is to study the consequences of occurrence both fault in input and multiple time-varying delays simultaneously while designing observer to estimate the states of agents and also unknown nonlinear fault of system. Two delay dependent criteria are established to show the states of observer reach to states of MAS and also states of observer reach to consensus. From two obtained criteria, it can be deduced, by constructing a distributed controller-based observer design, MAS reach to consensus exponentially. Finally, the advantages of the obtained results are shown by solving an illustrative example.
