TLDR
An upper bound for delay tolerance is obtained which explicitly depends on agent dynamics and networkTopology, and a controller design methodology without exact knowledge of the network topology is proposed so that multi-agent consensus in a set of unknown networks can be achieved.About:

Consensus of high-order multi-agent systems with large input and communication delays
Bin Zhou,Zongli Lin +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that, if the delays are constant and exactly known, the consensus problems can be solved by both full state feedback and observer based output feedback protocols for arbitrarily large yet bounded delays.

Consensus conditions for general second-order multi-agent systems with communication delay
TL;DR: An explicit formula is deduced for the delay margin of the consensus for the case with time delay for general second-order multi-agent systems (MASs) using the relationship between the roots of the characteristic equation and the time delay parameter.

Distributed conflict-free cooperation for multiple connected vehicles at unsignalized intersections
TL;DR: This paper firstly project the approaching vehicles from different traffic movements into a virtual lane and introduces a conflict-free geometry topology considering the conflict relationship of involved vehicles, thus constructing a virtual platoon, and presents the modeling of communication topology to describe two modes of information transmission between vehicles.

Consensus of Discrete-Time Linear Multiagent Systems With Communication, Input and Output Delays
TL;DR: A distributed predictor-based controller is proposed and it is shown that the output consensus problem can be solved via the proposed controller, and a new property of graphs is established, that is, uniform sequential connectivity and uniform quasi-strong connectivity are equivalent.

Consensus problems in networks of agents with switching topology and time-delays
TL;DR: A distinctive feature of this work is to address consensus problems for networks with directed information flow by establishing a direct connection between the algebraic connectivity of the network and the performance of a linear consensus protocol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Consensus and Cooperation in Networked Multi-Agent Systems
TL;DR: A theoretical framework for analysis of consensus algorithms for multi-agent networked systems with an emphasis on the role of directed information flow, robustness to changes in network topology due to link/node failures, time-delays, and performance guarantees is provided.

Consensus seeking in multiagent systems under dynamically changing interaction topologies
Wei Ren,Randal W. Beard +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that information consensus under dynamically changing interaction topologies can be achieved asymptotically if the union of the directed interaction graphs have a spanning tree frequently enough as the system evolves.

Consensus of Multiagent Systems and Synchronization of Complex Networks: A Unified Viewpoint
TL;DR: In this article, a distributed observer-type consensus protocol based on relative output measurements is proposed to solve the consensus problem of multi-agent systems with a time-invariant communication topology consisting of general linear node dynamics.

Brief paper: Some necessary and sufficient conditions for second-order consensus in multi-agent dynamical systems
Wenwu Yu,Guanrong Chen,Ming Cao +2 more
TL;DR: A necessary and sufficient condition is provided, which shows that consensus can be achieved in a multi-agent system whose network topology contains a directed spanning tree if and only if the time delay is less than a critical value.
