This paper investigates couple-group consensus problems for multiagent first-order and second-order systems. Several consensus protocols are proposed based on the time-dependent distributed event-triggered control. For the case of no communication delays, the time-dependent event-triggered strategies are applied to couple-group consensus problems. Based on the matrix theory, algebraic conditions for couple-group consensus are established. For the system with communication delays, based on event-triggered strategies, a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is constructed to prove the input-to-state stability of the systems. Moreover, Zeno behavior is excluded. Finally, numeral examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of these results.

Theoretical Results

The multiconsensus problem of first-order multiagent systems with directed topologies is studied. A novel consensus problem is introduced in multiagent systems — multiconsensus. The states of multiple agents in each subnetwork asymptotically converge to an individual consistent value in the presence of information exchanges among subnetworks. Linear multiconsensus protocols are proposed to solve the multiconsensus problem, and the matrix corresponding to the protocol is designed. Necessary and sufficient conditions are derived based on matrix theory, under which the stationary multiconsensus and dynamic multiconsensus can be reached. Simulations are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Group consensus seeking is investigated for a class of discrete-time heterogeneous multiagent systems composed of first-order and second-order agents with both communication and input time delays. Considering two types of system topologies, novel protocols based on the competitive and cooperative relationships among the agents are presented, respectively. By matrix theory and frequency domain analysis method, the sufficient conditions solving consensus problem are obtained. The results show that the achievement of group consensus is bound up with the input time delays, coupling weights between the agents and the system’s control parameters, but it is irrelevant to the communication delays. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the correctness of the theoretical results.

Theoretical Results

This paper discusses the couple-group consensus issues of a class of heterogeneous multiagent systems containing first-order and second-order dynamic agents under the influence of both input and communication delays. In distinction to the existing works, a novel distributed coordination control protocol is proposed which is not only on the foundation of the competitive interaction between the agents but also has no virtual velocity estimation in the first-order dynamics. Furthermore, without the restrictive assumptions existing commonly in the related works, several sufficient algebraic criteria are established for the heterogeneous systems to realize couple-group consensus asymptotically. The obtained conclusions show that the achievement of the systems’ couple-group consensus intimately relates to the coupling weights between the agents, the systems control parameters, and the input time delays of the agents, while communication time delays between the agents are irrelevant to it. Finally, several simulations are illustrated to verify the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.

The multiagent system has the advantages of simple structure, strong function, and cost saving, which has received wide attention from different fields. Consensus is the most basic problem in multiagent systems. In this paper, firstly, the problem of partial component consensus in the first-order linear discrete-time multiagent systems with the directed network topology is discussed. Via designing an appropriate pinning control protocol, the corresponding error system is analyzed by using the matrix theory and the partial stability theory. Secondly, a sufficient condition is given to realize partial component consensus in multiagent systems. Finally, the numerical simulations are given to illustrate the theoretical results.

This paper investigates the bipartite consensus problem of heterogeneous multiagent systems with diverse input delays. Based on the systems composed of first-order and second-order agents, the novel control protocols are designed. Using frequency-domain analysis and matrix theory, the corresponding upper bounds of the allowable delays are obtained under the undirected topology and directed topology, respectively. Finally, simulation examples are given to verify the theoretical analysis.

Theoretical Results

This paper considers a group consensus problem with a dynamic leader for multiagent systems in a sampled-data setting. With the leader’s state available to only a fraction of the followers, a distributed linear protocol based on sampled-data control is proposed for group consensus under fixed directed topology. On basis ofM-matrix theory, we derive a sufficient condition on the sampling period and the control parameter for ultimate boundedness of the tracking errors. Furthermore, simulation examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
