Tóm tắt

This paper is concerned with the multi-agent systems with both packet dropout and input delay. A novel receding horizon control (RHC) based consensus protocol is proposed by solving a distributed RHC based optimization problem. The novelty of the optimization problem lines in the involvement of the neighbours’ predictor information in the cost functions. Based on the derived RHC based consensus protocol, the necessary and sufficient condition for the mean-square consensus is obtained. In addition, the authors give a specific sufficient condition to guarantee the mean-square consensus.
