Effects of delays and network graphs on multi-agent network dynamics stability and performance
Koh · 2018
Dynamics of multi-agent systems (MAS) is influenced by communication/activation delays as well as network characteristics. Here, the aim is to design network graphs and develop control algorithms for a class of MAS considering critical the interplay between network delays and network graphs. Specifically, the network graphs influence not only the stability of MAS guaranteed when delay is less than a certain margin, delay margin, but also the performance, reaching speed of agents to a common steady state (consensus).
