This paper synthetically consider the effects of state quantization and switching topology for multiagent network systems due to the inherent features of time-varying topology and information constraints. Based on a new quantizer, we first construct the hybrid model of multiagent systems under quantized feedback, further analyze the finite-time convergence, and present the lower bound of time to consensus convergence. Finally, a simulation example is provided for different networks with switching topology to validate the theoretical results.
