This article studies consensus problems of discrete‐time linear multi‐agent systems with stochastic noises and binary‐valued communications. Different from quantized consensus of first‐order systems with binary‐valued observations, the quantized consensus of linear multi‐agent systems requires that each agent observes its neighbors' states dynamically. Unlike the existing quantized consensus of linear multi‐agent systems, the information that each agent in this article gets from its neighbors is only binary‐valued. To estimate its neighbors' states dynamically by using the binary‐valued observations, we construct a two‐step estimation algorithm. Based on the estimates, a stochastic approximation‐based distributed control is proposed. The estimation and control are analyzed together in the closed‐loop system, since they are strongly coupled. Finally, it is proved that the estimates can converge to the true states in mean square sense and the states can achieve consensus at the same time by properly selecting the coefficient in the estimation algorithm. Moreover, the convergence rate of the estimation and the consensus speed are both given by O(1/t). The theoretical results are illustrated by simulations. 相似文献

Consensus problems are studied for both continuous‐time and discrete‐time multi‐agent singular systems with time‐invariant and directed communication topologies. Under restricted system equivalence of singular agents, sufficient and necessary conditions are obtained for admissible consensus ability with static protocols, which are based on both the relative information of the dynamic states and the absolute information of the static states. For a network of continuous‐time singular systems, the existence of admissible consensualization can be cast into strong stabilizability of the agent dynamics. Once discrete‐time multi‐agent singular systems satisfy the condition of reaching nontrivial final consensus states, strong stabilizability is a sufficient condition to achieve admissible consensualization. Two algorithms are proposed to construct two protocols, which are based on a linear matrix inequality and a modified Riccati equation, respectively. Finally, the algorithms are illustrated by two simulation examples. 相似文献

In this paper, we propose two asynchronous distributed protocols for the heading consensus of a multi‐agent group which cannot access a global coordinate system and a global time. Both the leaderless and leader‐following cases are addressed, and inter‐agent communication delay is taken into account. It is proved, under some standard connectivity assumptions, that our leaderless algorithm ensures the heading consensus provided the initial headings are not balanced; and the leader‐based algorithm guarantees the global heading consensus. 相似文献

This paper investigates the finite‐time consensus problem for multi‐agent systems with second‐order individual dynamics under switching topologies. A distributed continuous‐time protocol is designed to guarantee finite‐time consensus for homogeneous agents without predetermined leaders, i.e., it ensures agents asymptotically converge to an average consensus within finite time, even if the interaction topology among them is time‐varying but stepwise jointly‐connected. In particular, it introduces a distributed continuous‐time protocol to reach consensus in finite time and reduce the chattering together. Finally, the simulation results are also given to validate the proposed approach. 相似文献

In this paper, the consensus problem is investigated via bounded controls for the multi‐agent systems with or without communication. Based on the nested saturation method, the saturated control laws are designed to solve the consensus problem. Under the designed saturated control laws, the transient performance of the closed‐loop system can be improved by tuning the saturation level. First of all, asymptotical consensus algorithms with bounded control inputs are proposed for the multi‐agent systems with or without communication delays. Under these consensus algorithms, the states’ consensus can be achieved asymptotically. Then, based on a kind of novel nonlinear saturation functions, bounded finite‐time consensus algorithms are further developed. It is shown that the states’ consensus can be achieved in finite time. Finally, two examples are given to verify the efficiency of the proposed methods. 相似文献

In this paper, we consider a distributed convex optimization problem where the objective function is an average combination of individual objective function in multi‐agent systems. We propose a novel Newton Consensus method as a distributed algorithm to address the problem. This method utilises the efficient finite‐time average consensus method as an information fusion tool to construct the exact Newtonian global gradient direction. Under suitable assumptions, this strategy can be regarded as a distributed implementation of the classical standard Newton method and eventually has a quadratic convergence rate. The numerical simulation and comparison experiment show the superiority of the algorithm in convergence speed and performance. 相似文献

This paper studies a consensus problem for lth (l ≥ 2) order multi‐agent systems with digraph, namely, for a fixed r (0 ≤ r ≤ l ? 1), the rth derivative of the states xi of agents are convergent to a constant value and, for every k (0 ≤ k ≤ l ? 1), are convergent to zeros. A new concept of r‐consensus is introduced and new consensus protocols are proposed for solving such an r‐consensus problem. A sufficient and necessary condition for r‐consensus is obtained. As special cases, criteria for third‐order systems are given, in which the exact relationship between feedback gains is established. Finally, an illustrative example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of these protocols. 相似文献

The paper presents asymptotic, and input‐to‐state stability results, for switched systems with dwell time in which the switching signal is not arbitrary, but is rather chosen as part of the control design strategy. Then, appropriate switching policies allow the use of functions without sign‐definite time derivatives in lieu of a common Lyapunov‐like function. 相似文献

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. 相似文献

This paper focuses on the average consensus problem of first‐order and second‐order continuous‐time multi‐agent systems with logarithmic quantized information transmission. The balanced and strongly connected digraphs are utilized to characterize the interaction topologies between agents. Based on the state estimation, distributed state updating mechanisms are introduced for every agent such that all agents’ states achieve average consensus asymptotically. By means of differential inclusion theory, we discuss the existence and convergence property of the Krasovskii solutions to the closed‐loop system models. By designing the proper control gain parameters and quantizer accuracy, two sufficient conditions are established to guarantee the achievement of average consensus. Finally, two numerical simulations are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of theoretical results. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

This paper investigates the average consensus for multi‐agent systems governed by high‐order linear dynamics with multiple time delays. Necessary and sufficient conditions for high‐order average consensus under balanced communication topology are provided by using a newly defined mathematical concept – the Kronecker basis. Furthermore, previous studies for average consensus governed by first‐order, or high‐order integrator can be regarded as special cases of our results. Simulation results are employed to demonstrate the effectiveness of our results for high‐order average consensus. 相似文献

Distributed dynamic average consensus is investigated under quantized communication data. We use a uniform quantizer with constant quantization step‐size to deal with the saturation caused by the dynamic consensus error and propose a communication feedback‐based distributed consensus protocol suitable for directed time‐varying topologies to make the internal state of each agent's encoder consistent with the output of its neighbors' decoder. For the case where the communication topology is directed, balanced and periodically connected, it is shown that if the difference of the reference inputs satisfies some boundedness condition, then the designed quantized dynamic consensus protocol can ensure the states of all the agents achieve dynamic average consensus with arbitrarily small steady state error by properly choosing system parameters. The lower bound of the required quantization levels and the method to choose the system parameters are also presented. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

This paper deals with the high‐precision consensus seeking problem of multi‐agent systems when they are subject to switching topologies and varying communication time‐delays. By combining the iterative learning control (ILC) approach, a distributed consensus seeking algorithm is presented based on only the relative information between every agent and its local (or nearest) neighbors. All agents can be enabled to achieve consensus exactly on a common output trajectory over a finite time interval. Furthermore, conditions are proposed to guarantee both exponential convergence and monotonic convergence for the resulting ILC processes of multi‐agent consensus systems. In particular, the linear matrix inequality technique is employed to formulate the established convergence conditions, which can directly give formulas for the gain matrix design. An illustrative example is included to validate the effectiveness of the proposed ILC‐motivated consensus seeking algorithm. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Consensus control of multi-agent systems is an innovative paradigm for the development of intelligent distributed systems. This has fascinated numerous scientific groups for their promising applications as they have the freedom to achieve their local and global goals and make their own decisions. Network communication topologies based on graph and matrix theory are widely used in a various real-time applications ranging from software agents to robotics. Therefore, while sustaining the significance of both directed and undirected graphs, this research emphases on the demonstration of a distributed average consensus algorithm. It uses the harmonic mean in the domain of multi-agent systems with directed and undirected graphs under static topologies based on a control input scheme. The proposed agreement protocol focuses on achieving a constant consensus on directional and undirected graphs using the exchange of information between neighbors to update their status values and to be able to calculate the total number of agents that contribute to the communication network at the same time. The proposed method is implemented for the identical networks that are considered under the directional and non-directional communication links. Two different scenarios are simulated and it is concluded that the undirected approach has an advantage over directed graph communication in terms of processing time and the total number of iterations required to achieve convergence. The same network parameters are introduced for both orientations of the communication graphs. In addition, the results of the simulation and the calculation of various matrices are provided at the end to validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm to achieve consensus. 相似文献

This paper studies the convergence properties of consensus algorithms for agents with double integrator dynamics communicating over networks modelled by undirected graphs. The positions and velocities of the agents are shared along heterogeneous, i.e. different, undirected communication networks. The main result is that consensus can be achieved, even though the networks along which position and velocity information are shared are different, and not even connected. Insights on the consensus rate are given based only on the topological properties of the network. 相似文献

This paper studies the consensus problem of second‐order discrete‐time multi‐agent systems with relative‐state‐dependent noises. Directed switching topologies are considered. Firstly, for a kind of switching topology with each digraph containing a spanning tree, we give a weak consensus result on the basis of the mode‐dependent average dwell time method. Then, if all digraphs in a switching topology are strongly connected and the corresponding Laplacian matrices have a common left eigenvector for zero eigenvalue, we prove that the mean square and almost sure consensus can always be guaranteed for an arbitrary switching sequence with some constant distributed control gains, and we also give the statistic properties of the final consensus points. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of our results. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

This paper investigates the flocking problem of multi‐agents following a leader with communication delays in a noisy environment. Based on potential fields and the LaSalle‐type theorem for stochastic differential delay equations, by introducing the adaptive protocol compensating for the desired velocity, a new neighbor‐based flocking protocol is proposed such that all the agents move with a virtual leader's velocity almost surely, and avoidance of collision between the agents is ensured. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods. 相似文献

In this paper, we consider the semiglobal leader‐following consensus of general linear multi‐agent systems subject to input saturation. First, an event‐triggered control protocol is provided to ensure semiglobal consensus of the multi‐agent systems, in which the agents should continuously monitor the information of their neighbors. Second, a self‐triggered control protocol is proposed to guarantee the semiglobal consensus of the multi‐agent systems, in which the agents only have access to the information of their neighbors in discrete time instants. Moreover, both event‐triggered control protocol and self‐triggered control protocol are proved to be Zeno‐free, that is, the inter‐event times for such two protocols have positive lower bounds. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed event‐based semiglobal consensus protocols. 相似文献

This paper studies the problem of minimizing the sum of convex functions that all share a common global variable, each function is known by one specific agent in the network. The underlying network topology is modeled as a time‐varying sequence of directed graphs, each of which is endowed with a non‐doubly stochastic matrix. We present a distributed method that employs gradient‐free oracles and push‐sum algorithms for solving this optimization problem. We establish the convergence by showing that the method converges to an approximate solution at the expected rate of , where T is the iteration counter. A numerical example is also given to illustrate the proposed method. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

We consider the multi‐agent optimization problem where multiple agents try to cooperatively optimize the sum of their local convex objective functions, subject to global inequality constraints and a convex constraint set over a network. Through characterizing the primal and dual optimal solutions as the saddle points of the associated Lagrangian function, which can be evaluated with stochastic errors, we propose the distributed primal–dual stochastic subgradient algorithms for two cases: (i) the time model is synchronous and (ii) the time model is asynchronous. In the first case, we obtain bounds on the convergence properties of the algorithm for a diminishing step size. In the second case, for a constant step size, we establish some error bounds on the algorithm's performance. In particular, we prove that the error bounds scale as in the number of n agents.
