Abstract

This article investigates the predefined-time consensus tracking problem for second-order multiagent systems (MASs) with uncertain disturbances. First, a distributed estimator is proposed to estimate the leader's states within predefined time. Then, a novel sliding mode surface is constructed and an adaptive sliding mode observer is established to estimate the uncertain disturbances within predefined time. Subsequently, by employing the predefined-time sliding surface and the adaptive technique, a novel adaptive sliding mode consensus protocol is proposed to overcome the singularity problem and achieve practical predefined-time convergence of the tracking errors to the neighborhood of origin. The Lyapunov approach is employed to prove the practical predefined-time stability of second-order MAS and the settling time is only determined by a single parameter, which facilitates the control protocol design according to the convergence time requirement. Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
