Abstract
This paper studies the containment control problem of heterogeneous multi-agent systems (MASs) with multiple leaders. The follower agent dynamics are assumed to be unknown and nonlinear. First, each follower is transformed into an incremental data description based on the dynamic linearization technique. Then, a distributed model-free adaptive containment control law is proposed such that all followers will be driven into the convex hull of the leaders. Furthermore, the algorithm is extended to the time-switching and dynamic leaders case. As a data-driven approach, the proposed controller design uses only the received input and output (I/O) data of these agents rather than agent mathematical models. Finally, to test the potential in real applications, three representative examples considering various environment factors, including external disturbances, are simulated to show the effectiveness and resilience of this method.
