Abstract
In this paper, we focus on designing a model reference adaptive control-based distributed control law to drive a set of agents with double-integrator dynamics in a leader–follower fashion in the presence of system anomalies such as agent-based uncertainties, unknown control effectiveness, and actuator dynamics. In particular, we introduce a novel hedging-based reference model with second-order dynamics to allow an adaptation in the presence of actuator dynamics. We show the stability of the overall closed-loop multi-agent system by utilizing the Lyapunov Stability Theory, where we analyze the stability condition by using the Linear Matrix Inequalities method to show the boundedness of the reference model and actuator states. Finally, we illustrate the efficacy of the proposed distributed adaptive controller on an undirected and connected line graph in five cases.
