Abstract
In this study, a distributed output-feedback design approach for ensuring fault-tolerant initial network connectivity and preselected-time consensus tracking performance is proposed for a class of uncertain time-delay nonlinear multiagent systems (TDNMSs) with unexpected actuator and communication faults. It is assumed that time-varying state delays and system nonlinearities in TDNMSs are unknown. The main contribution of this study is to provide a delay-independent output-feedback control strategy to address a fault-tolerant initial connectivity preservation problem in the consensus tracking field. A local delay-independent adaptive state observer using neural networks is designed for each follower, and the boundedness of local observation errors is proved by constructing a Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional and adaptive tuning laws. Then, the local nonlinear relative output errors using a time-varying function with a preselected convergence time are derived to design simple local delay-independent trackers. The stability of the proposed consensus tracking system is analyzed, and simulation comparison results demonstrate the validity of the proposed strategy.
