Research on consensus control for a class of high-order multi-agent systems

This paper researches the consensus problem of high-order multi-agent systems. A new dynamic neighbor-based protocol is proposed which contains two parts, one is the local feedback and the other is the distributed feedback of the first states of each agent. Sufficient conditions are derived for state consensus of the system. Finally, simulation results are shown the effectiveness of the obtained results.
