Abstract

This paper aims at secure and privacy-preserving consensus algorithms of networked systems. Due to the technical challenges behind decentralized design of such algorithms, the existing results are mainly restricted to a network of systems with simplest first-order dynamics. Like many other control problems, breakthrough of the gap between first-order dynamics and higher-order ones demands for more advanced technical developments. In this paper, we explore a Paillier encryption based average consensus algorithm for a network of systems with second-order dynamics, with randomness added to network weights. The conditions for privacy-preserving, especially depending on consensus rate, are thoroughly studied with theoretical analysis and numerical verification.
