Necessary and sufficient conditions for bounded distributed mean square tracking of multi-agent systems with noises. (English) Zbl 1333.93220

Int. J. Robust Nonlinear Control 26, No. 4, 631-645 (2016).
Summary: This paper is concerned with the distributed control problem of second-order agents under directed network topology. The control input of each agent only depends on its own state and the states of its neighbors corrupted by white noises. By using the algebraic graph theory and stochastic analysis method, necessary and sufficient conditions are presented for mean square bounded tracking. Finally, several simulation examples are given to illustrate the results.
