This article considers the controllability problem for multi-agent systems. In particular, the structural controllability of multi-agent systems under switching topologies is investigated. The structural controllability of multi-agent systems is a generalisation of the traditional controllability concept for dynamical systems, and purely based on the communication topologies among agents. The main contributions of this article are graph-theoretic characterisations of the structural controllability for multi-agent systems. It turns out that the multi-agent system with switching topology is structurally controllable if and only if the union graph 𝒢 of the underlying communication topologies is connected (single leader) or leader–follower connected (multi-leader). Finally, this article concludes with several illustrative examples and discussions of the results and future work. 相似文献

For an uncontrollable system, adding leaders and adjusting edge weights are two methods to improve controllability. In this paper, the controllability of multi-agent systems under directed topologies is studied, especially on the leader selection problem and the weight adjustment problem. For a multi-agent system, necessary and sufficient algebraic conditions for controllability with fewest leaders are proposed. To improve controllability by adjusting edge weights, the system is supposed to be structurally controllable, which holds if and only if the communication topology contains a spanning tree. It is also proved that the number of the fewest edges needed to be assigned on new weights equals the rank deficiency of controllability matrix. In addition, a leader selection algorithm and a weight adjustment algorithm are presented. Simulation examples are provided to illustrate the theoretical results. 相似文献

Consensus problem is investigated for heterogeneous multi-agent systems composed of first-order agents and second-order agents in this paper. Leader-following consensus protocol is adopted to solve consensus problem of heterogeneous multi-agent systems with time-varying communication and input delays. By constructing Lyapunov-Krasovkii functional, sufficient consensus conditions in linear matrix inequality(LMI) form are obtained for the system under fixed interconnection topology. Moreover, consensus conditions are also obtained for the heterogeneous systems under switching topologies with time delays. Simulation examples are given to illustrate effectiveness of the results. 相似文献

This paper addresses the controllability of a switching network of multi‐agent systems with a leader obeying nearest‐neighbor communication rules. The leader is a particular agent acting as an external input to control other member agents. Some computationally efficient sufficient conditions for such multi‐agent systems to be controllable are derived. The results show that a multi‐agent system can be controllable even if each of its subsystem is not controllable, by appropriately selecting one of the agents as the leader and suitably designing the neighbor‐interaction rules via a switching topology. The fixed topology case is analyzed and new controllability conditions and formula of inputs for the desired formation of the network are presented. The controllability of a switching network of multi‐agent systems in the presence of communication delay is also investigated. Examples with numerical simulations are given to illustrate the theoretical results. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

This paper investigates the controllability of multi-agent systems based on agreement protocols. First, for a group of single-integrator
agents, the controllability is studied in a unified framework for both networks with leader-following structure and networks
with undirected graph. Some new necessary/sufficient conditions for the controllability of networks of single-integrator agents
are established. Second, we prove that, under the same topology and same prescribed leaders, a network of high-order dynamic
agents is completely controllable if and only if so is a network of single-integrator agents. Third, how the selection of
leaders and the coupling weights of graphs affect the controllability is analyzed. Finally, some numerical simulations are
presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results. 相似文献

Controllability and observability of multi-agent systems with heterogeneous and switching topologies
ABSTRACTThis paper focuses on controllability and observability of multi-agent systems with heterogeneous and switching topologies, where the first- and the second-order information interaction topologies are different and switching. First, based on the controllable state set, a controllability criterion is obtained in terms of the controllability matrix corresponding to the switching sequence. Next, by virtue of the subspace sequence, two necessary and sufficient algebraic conditions are established for controllability in terms of the system matrices corresponding to all the possible topologies. Furthermore, controllability is considered from the graphic perspective. It is proved that the system is controllable if the union graph of all the possible topologies is controllable. With respect to observability, two sufficient and necessary conditions are derived by taking advantage of the system matrices and the corresponding invariant subspace, respectively. Finally, some simulation examples are worked out to illustrate the theoretical results. 相似文献

In this article, we study distributed consensus of heterogeneous multi-agent systems with fixed and switching topologies. The analysis is based on graph theory and nonnegative matrix theory. We propose two kinds of consensus protocols based on the consensus protocol of first-order and second-order multi-agent systems. Some necessary and sufficient conditions that the heterogeneous multi-agent system solves the consensus problems under different consensus protocols are presented with fixed topology. We also give some sufficient conditions for consensus of the heterogeneous multi-agent system with switching topology. Simulation examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results. 相似文献

This paper investigates the controllability of first-order and second-order discrete-time multi-agent systems with directed topology and input delay. The problem is studied in the leader–follower framework where a number of agents are selected to be leaders and serve as control inputs to all other agents. Sufficient and necessary conditions are derived for the controllability of first-order discrete-time multi-agent systems. With sampling period and feedback gain satisfying certain conditions, it is proved under three different protocols that the controllability of second-order discrete-time multi-agent systems is equivalent to that of a pair of submatrices of Laplacian matrix. In addition, the controllability of both first-order and second-order discrete-time multi-agent systems with input delay is shown, through some transformations, to be equivalent to that of the transformed non-delayed systems. Finally, some simulation examples are given to illustrate the theoretical results. 相似文献

In this article, the controllability issue is addressed for an interconnected system of multiple agents. The network associated with the system is of the leader–follower structure with some agents taking leader role and others being followers interconnected via the neighbour-based rule. Sufficient conditions are derived for the controllability of multi-agent systems with time-delay in state, as well as a graph-based uncontrollability topology structure is revealed. Both single and double integrator dynamics are considered. For switching topology, two algebraic necessary and sufficient conditions are derived for the controllability of multi-agent systems. Several examples are also presented to illustrate how to control the system to shape into the desired configurations. 相似文献

The current theoretical investigation on the controllability of switched multiagent systems mainly focuses on fixed connected topology or union graph without nonaccessible nodes. However, for discrete‐time multiagent systems with switching topology, it is still unknown whether the existing results are valid or not under the condition of arbitrary topology. Based on graph distance partitions and Wonham's geometric approach, we provide the lower and upper bounds for the dimension of controllable subspaces of discrete‐time multiagent systems. Unlike the existing results of controllability with switching topology, the proposed results have the advantage of being applicable to multiagent systems with arbitrary graphic topologies, union graph (strongly connected or not), and coupling weights. We also provide 2 algorithms for computing the lower and upper bounds for the dimension of controllable subspaces, respectively. Furthermore, as a remarkable application, we present how the proposed lower bound can be utilized for achieving the targeted controllability if the dimension of the controllable subspace of the switched system satisfies certain conditions. 相似文献

This paper considers controllability and observability of switched multi-agent systems, which are composed of continuous-time and discrete-time subsystems. First, a controllability criterion is established in terms of the system matrices. Then, by virtue of the concepts of the invariant subspace and the controllable state set, a method is proposed to construct the switching sequence to ensure controllability of switched multi-agent systems, and a necessary and sufficient condition is obtained for controllability. Moreover, a necessary controllability condition is derived in terms of eigenvectors of the Laplican matrix. With respect to observability, two necessary and sufficient algebraic conditions are obtained. Finally, simulation examples are provided to illustrate the theoretical results. 相似文献

In this article, the target controllability of multiagent systems under fixed and switching topologies is investigated, respectively. In the fixed topology setting, some necessary and/or sufficient algebraic and graph‐theoretic conditions are proposed, and the target controllable subspace is quantitatively studied by virtue of almost equitable graph vertex partitions. In the switching topology setting, based on the concepts of the invariant subspace and the target controllable state set, some necessary and sufficient algebraic conditions are obtained. Moreover, the target controllability is studied from the union graph perspective. The results show that when the union graph of all the possible topologies is target controllable, the multiagent system would be target controllable even if each of its subsystems is not. Numerical simulations are provided finally to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical results. 相似文献
