Abstract
This paper addresses the bipartite flocking control problem of multi-agent systems with random packet dropouts, in which cooperative and competitive information interactions among agents are described by a signed network. The random packet dropouts are denoted by Bernoulli random variable and the information transmission failure between adjacent agents is possible at every time step. In this case, the unreliable information transmission within multi-agent systems may lead to behavioral dispersion and instability. To solve this problem, a novel fully distributed control scheme is designed. In light of the convergence method for products of infinite sub-stochastic matrices, the bipartite flocking control can be global almost sure to achieve and some essentially algebraic conditions are established. Finally, the effectiveness of the control scheme under random packet dropouts is illustrated by a numerical simulation example.
