Coordination control of uncertain topological high-order multi-agent systems: distributed fuzzy adaptive iterative learning approach

Abstract

This paper demonstrates that the method of T–S fuzzy model can be used to describe the uncertain topological structure for high-order linearly parameterized multi-agent systems (MAS). The dynamic of the leader is only available to a portion of the follower agents; thus, we present a novel distributed adaptive iterative learning control (AILC) protocol without using any global information to deal with the consensus problem of MAS under initial-state learning condition. It is proved that the proposed control protocol ensures all the internal signals in the multi-agent system are bounded, and the follower agents track the leader exactly on the finite time interval [0, T]; a sufficient condition is obtained for the exactly consensus result of the multi-agent system by choosing the appropriate composite energy function. Extensions to the formation control of multi-agent systems are also given. In the end, illustrative examples are shown to verify the availability of the proposed AILC scheme.
