Reachable set estimation of multi-agent systems with semi-Markov switching topologies and time-delay

The issue of non-fragile controller's designed with reachable set estimation and time-delay for multi-agent systems(MASs) is investigated in this paper. The information interaction among agents is governed by a set of switching sequence, which can be described by continue-time discrete state semi-Markov process. By tree-transformation, the MASs firstly converted into reduced-order system, and properly considered the instability of the parameters with the dynamic behavior of the controller, a non-fragile controller is designed to describe the system's performance cope with the perturbation from the con-troller. The sufficient conditions are established in forms of a series of linear matrix inequalities which are based on Lyapunov-Krasovskii method, and the agent's state of error systems is bounded by a finite closed set will be guaranteed. Finally, the availability of the derived theoretical results are verified by two numerical simulations.& COPY; 2023 The Franklin Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
