Abstract
In this article, the cooperative fuzzy hierarchical fault-tolerant containment control (FTCC) method is proposed for nonlinear multiagent systems (MASs) over switching directed topologies. Based on the hierarchical mechanism, the problem of the cooperative FTCC for nonlinear MASs under switching directed topologies is decoupled into the cooperative containment control problem of the virtual reference system (upper layer) under switching directed topologies and the tracking control problem of the actual system (lower layer). Due to the existence of switching topologies, the state of the virtual reference system may jump, which further affects the transient performance of the lower tracking system; moreover, the actuator faults may also cause a sudden change in actual system. In order to mitigate the influence of switching topologies and actuator faults on the lower tracking system, the generalized restricted potential function is introduced to ensure the norm of the lower tracking error within the predefined performance function. Finally, a simulation example is introduced to illustrate the theoretical results obtained.
