TLDR
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.Abstract:
This note considers the problem of information consensus among multiple agents in the presence of limited and unreliable information exchange with dynamically changing interaction topologies. Both discrete and continuous update schemes are proposed for information consensus. This note shows 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.read more

Decentralized finite-time sliding mode estimators and their applications in decentralized finite-time formation tracking
Yongcan Cao,Wei Ren,Ziyang Meng +2 more
TL;DR: It is shown that formation tracking can be achieved for systems with both single-Integrator kinematics and double-integrator dynamics in finite time and can be easily decoupled into two subtasks, that is, decentralized sliding mode estimation and vehicle desired state tracking.

Youfeng Su,Jie Huang +1 more
TL;DR: This paper establishes a stability result for a class of linear switched systems involving Kronecker product and gives the solvability conditions for both the leaderless consensus problem and the leader-following consensus problem for general marginally stable linear multi-agent systems under switching network topology.
