Consensus in Networked Multi-Agent Systems via Sampled Control: Switching Topology Case

In this paper, consensus problems of continuous-time networked multi-agent systems via sampled control are investigated. The sampled control protocols are induced from continuous-time linear consensus protocol by using periodic sampling technology and zero-order hold circuit. A sufficient condition for reaching average-consensus under undirected networks with sampling delay and switching topology is obtained. Some numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the utility of our theoretical results.Automation & Control SystemsEICPCI-S(ISTP)2
