Dynamic consensus of switched linear multi-agent systems

Consensus problem of switched multi-agent systems (MASs) by dynamic output feedback control for fixed topology is investigated in this paper. The agents dynamics are described by switched linear systems. For the topology structure with full local information, under the assumption that there exists at least a subsystem of closed-loop MASs with non-detectability or non-stabilisability, sufficient conditions of reaching consensus are presented. The given conditions depend on both the topologies structure of MASs, the structure properties of each agent dynamics and switching signal. Finally, simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed solutions.
