Abstract
The containment control problem for generally linear multiagent systems with aperiodic sampling intervals and measurement size reduction is considered in this paper. Under the assumption that the sampling interval changes from a finite set, an improved protocol is proposed, such that a larger sampling interval can be obtained to achieve containment. By using the properties of Laplacian matrix and the newly developed protocol, the containment control problem is transformed into the stability problem of a discrete-time switched linear system. A sufficient condition is obtained that ensures all the followers converge to the convex hull formed by the state of leaders, and such a sufficient condition is presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities, which are independent of the node of network. To further reduce the communication among agents, a switching-type measurement size reduction scheme is introduced. An optimization problem is proposed for the corresponding controller design. Finally, two simulation studies are conducted to show the effectiveness and advantage of the proposed control algorithms.
