Abstract

The consensus problem of heterogeneous second-order nonlinear uncertain multiagent systems under switching networks is addressed by a distributed control approach. The network communication of all systems is subject to arbitrarily bounded and nonuniform time-varying delays. Based on the internal model principle, a nonlinear distributed dynamic controller is developed to solve the problem. By means of Lyapunov analysis, consensus of heterogeneous second-order nonlinear multiagent systems is achieved in the presence of system uncertainties, disturbances, and uniformly connected topologies as well as arbitrarily bounded and nonuniform time-varying communication delays.
