摘要

For swarm systems consisting of agents described by high-order linear singular systems, admissible output consensus problems are investigated. By using observability decomposition and eigenvalue decomposition techniques, a sufficient condition for admissible output consensus and a necessary and sufficient condition for admissible limited control energy output consensus are obtained. Furthermore, it is shown that stabilisability of the agents is a sufficient condition for admissible output consensualisability, and an approach to solve the protocol design problem is presented. Finally, a numerical example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of protocol design approach.
