LEADER-FOLLOWING CONSENSUS FOR A CLASS OF LINEAR MULTI-AGENT SYSTEMS UNDER SWITCHING NETWORKS
Jiayi Huang · The International Conference on Applied Mechanics and Mechanical Engineering · 2016
The existing result on the leader-following consensus problem for linear discrete-time multi-agent systems subject to switching networks is limited to undirected networks.In this paper, we further study the same problem for a class of linear multi-agent systems subject to directed switching networks.It is shown that, under certain assumptions, it is possible to solve the problem for directed networks by a distributed state feedback control law.Our approach is illustrated by a case study.
