Matrix-weighted consensus for multi-agent systems with sampled-data

Abstract

This paper researches the consensus issue for multi-agent systems on matrix-weighted directed fixed and undirected switching network topologies by sampled data control method which saves resources and is more practical. Using the sampled information, the distributed control laws are designed under two network topologies, respectively. Under directed fixed network topology, the consensus conditions based on the sampling period and the eigenvalues of Laplacian matrix are deduced by matrix theory and analysis theory. Under undirected switching network topology, by using Lyapunov stability theory, the consensus conditions based on the sampling period and switched network topologies are built. Lastly, two simulation examples are offered to verify the validity of the obtained results.
