Formation Control for Heterogeneous Multi-agent Systems with Communication Delays Based on Impulsive Control
In order to improve the robustness of the formation system and reduce the system demands for communication conditions
concerning the formation control problem of multi-agent systems
a control approach is proposed based on impulsive control for the formation control problem of heterogeneous multi-agent systems. Considering problems in multi-agent systems with switching topology and time-varying delays
an impulsive control algorithm is proposed based upon leader-following models by using the consensus theory. In formation control of heterogeneous multi-agent systems
the time-varying delays problem is transformed into the upper bound of time-delays problem by the matrix theory. A Lyapunov function is constructed. By the Lyapunov theory
a sufficient condition for solving the formation control problem of heterogeneous multi-agent systems is obtained. Aiming to compare the control protocol with others
the average communication cost index of multi-agent systems with switching topology is proposed. The simulation results illustrate the validity and the superiority of the proposed impulsive control approach.
