Abstract

In this paper, a distributed algorithm for reaching average consensus is proposed for multi-agent systems with tree communication graph, when the edge weight distribution is unbalanced. First, the problem is introduced as a key topic of core algorithms for several modern scenarios. Then, the relative solution is proposed as a finite-time algorithm, which can be included in any application as a preliminary setup routine, and it is well-suited to be integrated with other adaptive setup routines, thus making the proposed solution useful in several practical applications. A special focus is devoted to the integration of the proposed method with a recent Laplacian eigenvalue allocation algorithm, and the implementation of the overall approach in a wireless sensor network framework. Finally, a worked example is provided, showing the significance of this approach for reaching a more precise average consensus in uncertain scenarios.
