Abstract

This paper is concerned with hierarchical consensus for a group of agents with nonlinear passive dynamics. Our main idea of achieving consensus is to design the upper level interconnection so that passivity of subsystems is guaranteed by choosing the I/O of subsystems appropriately. We show that consensus can be achieved if the interconnection graph is strongly connected by constructing a Lyapnov function in the form of a weighted sum of storage functions for the subsystems. The result can be extended to an adaptive case for a class of unknown nonlinear systems. © 2011 SICE.
