Abstract:The paper investigates a leader-following scheme for nonlinear multi-agent systems (MASs). The network of agents involves time-delay, unknown leader’s states, external perturbations, and switching graph topologies. Two distributed protocols including a consensus protocol and an observer are utilized to reconstruct the unavailable states of the leader in a network of agents. The H∞-based stability conditions for estimation and consensus problems are obtained in the framework of linear-matrix inequalities (LMIs)… Show more
