Leader–Follower Consensus of Multiagent Systems With Time Delays Over Finite Fields

Abstract

This paper studies the leader-follower consensus of multiagent systems with time delays and switching topology over finite fields. First, an equivalent algebraic form is established for leader-follower multiagent systems with time delays over finite fields. Second, based on the algebraic form, a necessary and sufficient condition is presented for the finite-field leader-follower consensus with time delays. Third, the switching topology case is considered, and a new criterion is presented for the finite-field leader-follower consensus with time delays and switching topology. Finally, an example is worked out to illustrate the obtained results.

Distributed Event-Based Control of Hierarchical Leader-Follower Networks with Time-Varying Layer-To-Layer Delays

“…If Equation 17does not hold, then t * > t 0 for δ(t * ) = v(t * ) and δ(t) < v(t) for t < t * . Then by Equation (16), one has v(t * ) = δ(t * )…”

“…Based on the passivity theory, the state estimation of recurrent neural networks (MRNNs) with time-varying delays is studied in [15]. Li [16] investigated the leader-following consensus of MASs with time delays and switching topology. Zhao [17] studied the consensus problem for MASs with communication delays.…”

Modeling and Stability Analysis for Markov Jump Networked Evolutionary Games

“…Sufficient. To prove the part of sufficient, we need first prove the fact that each network has a common fixed point as under conditions (25). Assume that is not a fixed point of network 0 , then…”

“…References [17,20] presented the recent applications for STP method in engineering and finitevalued systems, respectively. See [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] for more recent developments about the application of STP method in logical networks.…”

Review of stability and stabilization for impulsive delayed systems

“…Time delay, whether occurs in the system state, the control input, or the measurement, is often inevitable in practical systems and can be a source of instability and poor performance [21,19,1,61,41,20,94,95,79,72]. The future evolution of the system state of a time delay system depends not only on its current value, but also on its past values [124,15,88,87,55,121,111,81,34,14,117,46]. Many processes have time delay characteristics in their dynamics.…”
