Finite-time consensus of multi-agent systems via event-triggered control

Practical finite-time consensus of multi-agent systems with unknown nonlinear dynamics and the asymmetric input dead zone

“…Wang et al (2019) considered an adaptive finite-time consensus problem for second-order MASs under directed topologies without applying any global information with respect to the communication network. In Zamanian et al (2020, 2021b), the global graph information (the maximum node out-degree of the undirected graph) is required to be known a priori.…”

“…A novel adaptive finite-time consensus of heterogeneous MASs with unknown nonlinear dynamics, the asymmetric input dead zone, and external disturbances under directed graphs is proposed.2. Compared to Zheng and Wang (2012), Sun and Zhu (2015), Shi et al (2019), and Zamanian et al (2020, 2021b), which investigate the finite-time consensus for heterogeneous MASs only under undirected topologies, in our suggested approach, it is supposed that the interaction network is directed. It should be mentioned that the works which investigated the cooperation of MASs under undirected networks took benefit of the symmetric Laplacian matrix, which simplifies the stability analysis.3.…”

In contrast to Zhou et al (2015) and Zamanian et al (2020, 2021b), our proposed protocol is fully distributed, which means that the global graph information is not required to be known a priori.4. In this paper, linear parametric property for nonlinearities or the Lipschitz condition is not needed.…”
