| Abstract: | This paper studies the synchronization of general linear multi‐agent systems with measurement noises in mean square. It shows that the conventional consensus protocol is efficient and robust to the additive and multiplicative measurement noises in mean square. For the additive measurement noises which are independent of the relative‐states, it shows that the multi‐agent systems can achieve synchronization in practical mean square. For the multiplicative measurement noises which are dependent of the relative‐states, it shows that the multi‐agent systems can achieve synchronization in (strict) mean square. Furthermore, the new consensus protocol is better than the conventional one at some specific situations, i.e., the multi‐agent systems with additive measurement noises can also achieve synchronization in (strict) mean square. Numerical simulations are also provided and the results show highly consistent with the theoretical results. |
