Leader-following rendezvous with connectivity preservation of single-integrator multi-agent systems

TLDR
A distributed state feedback control protocol is proposed that is able to maintain the connectivity of the system and, at the same time, achieve asymptotic tracking of all followers to the output of the leader system.
Abstract
This paper studies the problem of leader-following rendezvous with connectivity preservation for a linear multi-agent system where the leader system is a linear autonomous system and the follower system is a multiple single-integrator system. We propose a distributed state feedback control protocol that is able to maintain the connectivity of the system and, at the same time, achieve asymptotic tracking of all followers to the output of the leader system.

Discrete‐time global leader‐following consensus of a group of general linear systems using bounded controls

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of global leader-following consensus of a group of discrete-time general linear systems with bounded controls is considered. But the authors focus on the problem where the leader is a neighbor of at least one follower agent and the communication topology among follower agents is a strongly connected and detailed balanced directed graph.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the cooperative output regulation problem for multi-agent systems, which is a generalization of the leader-following consensus problem in the sense that the problem simultaneously addresses asymptotic tracking and disturbance rejection, accounts for model uncertainty and accommodates a general leader system.
