Abstract

This study addresses a consensus problem for the leader-following multi-agent systems with second-order nonlinear dynamics under a directed communication topology, without assuming the strong connectivity or containing a spanning tree characteristic. Besides, each agent can only communicate with its neighbors intermittently in this paper. An available control algorithm is introduced, by making full use of intermittent relative local information. Subsequently, some sufficient conditions are derived for achieving consensus of multi-agent systems under a general intermittent communication topology. Finally, a simulation result is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed results.
