“…As claimed and demonstrated in [1][2][3][4][5]8,9,13,18,26,29,30], consensus aimed at guiding the states of all agents to achieve a common value is one of the fundamental problems in the coordinated control of multi-agent systems and has attracted considerable attention, ranging from first-order systems [7,23] to second-order systems [10,12,14,20,31] and even high-order ones [21]. For example, the authors in [23] investigated the consensus of first-order multiagent systems subject to input saturation, whereas references [12,20,31] focused on the consensus of second-order multi-agent systems with nonlinear intrinsic dynamics.…”
