Consensus of Singular Multi-agent Systems Based on Networked Predictive Control ?

چکیده
This brief studies the causal consensus problem of singular (descriptor) multi-agent systems with networked communication delays and agents described by general singular systems. For the studied systems, only the information of outputs are available through the network. An observer-based networked predictive control scheme is employed to compensate for the communication delays actively. Furthermore, based on the output feedback, observer and the networked predictive control scheme, a novel protocol is proposed in this paper. By using the tools of graph, algebra and singular system theory, the necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the existence of the proposed protocol to solve the considered consensus problem. The given conditions depend on not only the topologies of singular multi-agent systems but also the structure properties of each agent dynamics. Moreover, a consensus algorithm is proposed to design the novel observer-based predictive protocol. A numerical example demonstrates the effectiveness of compensation for networked delays using the provided consensus algorithm.

متن کاملModelling and Compensation of uncertain time-delays in networked control systems with plant uncertainty using an Improved RMPC Method
Control systems with digital communication between sensors, controllers and actuators are called as Networked Control Systems (NCSs). In general, NCSs encounter with some problems such as packet dropouts and network induced delays. When plant uncertainty is added to the aforementioned problems, the design of the robust controller that is able to guarantee the stability, becomes more complex. In...
