Consensusability is an important property for many multi-agent systems (MASs) as it implies the existence of networked controllers driving the states of MAS subsystems to the same value. Consensusability is of interest even when the MAS subsystems are physically coupled, which is the case for real-world systems such as power networks. In this paper, we study necessary and sufficient conditions for the consensusability of linear interconnected MASs. These conditions are given in terms of the parameters of the subsystem matrices, as well as the eigenvalues of the physical and communication graph Laplacians. Our results show that weak coupling between subsystems and fast information diffusion rates in the physical and communication graphs favor consensusability. Technical results are verified through computer simulations.

This study considers the problem of periodic event-triggered (PET) cooperative output regulation for a class of linear multi-agent systems. The advantage of the PET output regulation is that the data transmission and triggered condition are only need ed to be monitored at discrete sampling instants. It is assumed that only a small number of agents can have access to the system matrix and states of the leader. Meanwhile, the PET mechanism is considered not only in the communication between various agents, but also in the sensor-to-controller and controller-to-actuator transmission channels for each agent. The above problem set-up will bring some challenges to the controller design and stability analysis. Based on a novel PET distributed observer, a PET dynamic output feedback control method is developed for each follower. Compared with the existing works, our method can naturally exclude the Zeno behavior, and the inter-event time becomes multiples of the sampling period. Furthermore, for every follower, the minimum inter-event time can be determined textit{a prior}, and computed directly without the knowledge of the leader information. An example is given to verify and illustrate the effectiveness of the new design scheme.

A graph theoretic framework recently has been proposed to stabilize interconnected multiagent systems in a distributed fashion, while systematically capturing the architectural aspect of cyber-physical systems with separate agent or physical layer an d control or cyber layer. Based on that development, in addition to the modeling uncertainties over the agent layer, we consider a scenario where the control layer is subject to the denial of service attacks. We propose a step-by-step procedure to design a control layer that, in the presence of the aforementioned abnormalities, guarantees a level of robustness and resiliency for the final two-layer interconnected multiagent system. The incorporation of an event-triggered strategy further ensures an effective use of the limited energy and communication resources over the control layer. We theoretically prove the resilient, robust, and Zeno-free convergence of all state trajectories to the origin and, via a simulation study, discuss the feasibility of the proposed ideas.

In this paper, an optimal output consensus problem is studied for discrete-time linear multiagent systems subject to external disturbances. Each agent is assigned with a local cost function which is known only to itself. Distributed protocols are to be designed to guarantee an output consensus for these high-order agents and meanwhile minimize the aggregate cost as the sum of these local costs. To overcome the difficulties brought by high-order dynamics and external disturbances, we develop an embedded design and constructively present a distributed rule to solve this problem. The proposed control includes three terms: an optimal signal generator under a directed information graph, an observer-based compensator to reject these disturbances, and a reference tracking controller for these linear agents. It is shown to solve the formulated problem with some mild assumptions. A numerical example is also provided to illustrate the effectiveness of our proposed distributed control laws.

Extended from the classic switched system, themulti-dimensional switched system (MDSS) allows for subsystems(switching modes) with different state dimensions. In this work,we study the stability problem of the MDSS, whose state transi-tion at each sw itching instant is characterized by the dimensionvariation and the state jump, without extra constraint imposed.Based on the proposed transition-dependent average dwell time(TDADT) and the piecewise TDADT methods, along with the pro-posed parametric multiple Lyapunov functions (MLFs), sufficientconditions for the practical and the asymptotical stabilities of theMDSS are respectively derived for the MDSS in the presenceof unstable subsystems. The stability results for the MDSS areapplied to the consensus problem of the open multi-agent system(MAS) which exhibits dynamic circulation behaviors. It is shownthat the (practical) consensus of the open MAS with disconnectedswitching topologies can be ensured by (practically) stabilizingthe corresponding MDSS with unstable switching modes via theproposed TDADT and parametric MLF methods.

Due to the wide application of average consensus algorithm, its security and privacy problems have attracted great attention. In this paper, we consider the system threatened by a set of unknown agents that are both malicious and curious, who add add itional input signals to the system in order to perturb the final consensus value or prevent consensus, and try to infer the initial state of other agents. At the same time, we design a privacy-preserving average consensus algorithm equipped with an attack detector with a time-varying exponentially decreasing threshold for every benign agent, which can guarantee the initial state privacy of every benign agent, under mild conditions. The attack detector will trigger an alarm if it detects the presence of malicious attackers. An upper bound of false alarm rate in the absence of malicious attackers and the necessary and sufficient condition for there is no undetectable input by the attack detector in the system are given. Specifically, we show that under this condition, the system can achieve asymptotic consensus almost surely when no alarm is triggered from beginning to end, and an upper bound of convergence rate and some quantitative estimates about the error of final consensus value are given. Finally, numerical case is used to illustrate the effectiveness of some theoretical results.
