摘要
Formation control problems for high-order linear time-invariant multiagent systems with time delays are investigated. First, a general time-varying formation control protocol is proposed. Then, based on consensus approaches, necessary and sufficient conditions for multiagent systems to achieve a given time-varying formation are presented. An explicit expression of the time-varying formation reference function is also given. It is shown that the motion modes of the formation reference can be specified. Furthermore, necessary and sufficient conditions for formation feasibility are proposed. An approach to expand the feasible formation set and an algorithm to design the protocol for multiagent systems to achieve time-varying formations are provided, respectively. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate theoretical results.
