Group Information based Nonlinear Consensus for Multi-agent Systems
2019
IEEE Access

This paper continues our previous hierarchical consensus work by considering a nonlinear case. ...
A two-level hierarchical structure is then obtained. An example is shown in Fig. 1 , where the agent state interacts inside a group, and group information exchanges among groups. ...

Decentralization of Virtual Linkage in Formation Control of Multi-Agents via Consensus Strategies
2018
Applied Sciences
As compared to the original virtual linkage approach, the proposed approach uses decentralized architecture rather than hierarchical architecture, which does not require role assignments in each virtual ...
In addition, each agent can completely decide its movement with only exchanging states with part of the team members, which makes this approach more suitable for situations when a large number of agents ...

Consensus over directed static networks with arbitrary finite communication delays
2009
Physical Review E
We study the consensus problem in directed static networks with arbitrary finite communication delays and consider both linear and nonlinear coupling. ...
For the considered networked system, only locally delayed information is available for each node and also the information flow is directed. ...
Moreover, the directed information flow is another important challenge for the consensus problem. ...
