Leader-following consensus for a class of high-order nonlinear multi-agent systems. (English) Zbl 1372.93017

Automatica 73, 138-144 (2016).
Summary: The finite-time leader-following consensus problem is addressed for a class of high-order multi-agent systems with uncertain nonlinear dynamics. Each follower node is modeled by a lower-triangular system. By using recursive method, we develop the finite-time consensus control design scheme. Based on finite-time Lyapunov stability theorem and matrix theory, we prove that the finite-time consensus of high-order uncertain nonlinear multi-agent systems is guaranteed by non-Lipschitz continuous control laws. Simulation results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
