Distributed Time-Varying Optimization of Second-Order Multiagent Systems Under Limited Interaction Ranges

This article investigates the distributed time-varying optimization problem for second-order multiagent systems (MASs) under limited interaction ranges. The goal is to seek the minimum of the sum of local time-varying cost functions (CFs), where each CF is only available to the corresponding agent. Limited communication range refers to the...

Consensus in high-power multiagent systems with mixed unknown control directions via hybrid Nussbaum-based control

This work investigates the consensus tracking problem for high-power nonlinear multiagent systems with partially unknown control directions. The main challenge of considering such dynamics lies in the fact that their linearized dynamics contain uncontrollable modes, making the standard backstepping technique fail; also, the presence of mixed...
