Abstract
This paper considers the containment control problem for second-order multi-agent systems with time-varying delays. Both the containment control problem with multiple stationary leaders and the problem with multiple dynamic leaders are investigated. Sufficient conditions on the communication digraph, the feedback gains, and the allowed upper bound of the delays to ensure containment control are given. In the case that the leaders are stationary, the Lyapunov–Razumikhin function method is used. In the case that the leaders are dynamic, the Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional method and the linear matrix inequality (LMI) method are jointly used. A novel discretized Lyapunov functional method is introduced to utilize the upper bound of the derivative of the delays no matter how large it is, which leads to a better result on the allowed upper bound of the delays to ensure containment control. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.
