Distributed robust \(H_\infty\) consensus control of multiagent systems with communication errors using dynamic output feedback protocol (Q474793)

Summary: This paper studies robust consensus problem for multiagent systems modeled by an identical linear time-invariant system under a fixed communication topology. Communication errors in the transferred data are considered, and only the relative output information between each agent and its neighbors is available. A distributed dynamic output feedback protocol is proposed, and sufficient conditions for reaching consensus with a prescribed \(H_\infty\) performance are presented. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the theoretical results.
