Abstract

In order to solve the problem of flocking for multi-agent systems with external disturbances, this paper studies the finite-time consensus of second-order multi-agent systems with external disturbances. Based on the disturbance estimations of external disturbances, a control protocol is proposed without velocity information, to deal with the leader-following consensus tracking problem of multi-agent systems. With the aid of algebraic graph theory and modern control theory, the finite-time consensus of second-order multi-agent systems with external disturbances is studied. The simulation results are provided to verify that the finite-time consensus algorithm of systems can make the states of followers converge to the states of one leader, and the state consistency of the second-order multi-agent systems with external disturbances is achieved.
