Localized Data-Driven Consensus Control
Zeze Chang, Junjie Jiao, Zhongkui Li · IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control · 2025
This article considers a localized data-driven consensus problem for leader–follower multiagent systems with unknown discrete-time agent dynamics, where each follower computes its local control gain using only their locally collected state and input data. Both noiseless and noisy data-driven protocols are presented to achieve leader–follower consensus, by addressing the challenge of the heterogeneity in control gains caused by the localized data sampling and distinct parameters of agents. The design of these data-driven consensus protocols involves low-dimensional linear matrix inequalities. In addition, the results are extended to the case where only the leader's data are collected and exploited. The effectiveness of the proposed methods is illustrated via simulation examples.
