Adaptive Output Synchronization with Uncertain Leader

The synchronization problem of LSNSs has attracted considerable attention due to its widely applications, see for example, [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9], and the references therein. In the leader-follower framework, the leader’s motion is independent of all the followers and followed by them [10]. The dynamics of the individual followers can be non-identical [11, 12] or identical [13]. For the case of non-identical followers, the output regulation theory is a valuable method to handle the synchronization problem [14, 15].
