Containment Control of Fractional Order Multi-Agent Systems With Time Delays

In complex environments, many distributed multi-agent systems are described with the fractional-order dynamics. In this paper, containment control of fractional-order multi-agent systems with multiple leader agents are studied. Firstly, the collaborative control of fractional-order multi-agent systems U+0028 FOMAS U+0029 with multiple leaders is analyzed in a directed network without delays. Then, by using Laplace transform and frequency domain theorem, containment consensus of networked FOMAS with time delays is investigated in an undirected network, and a critical value of delays is obtained to ensure the containment consensus of FOMAS. Finally, numerical simulations are shown to verify the results.
