Abstract :
This study deals with output consensus problems of linear multi-agent systems with fixed topologies and agents described by homogeneous or heterogeneous linear MIMO systems. Based on generalized inverse, graph and linear system theory, output consensusability conditions are proposed with respect to a set of admissible consensus protocols. The given output consensus conditions depend on both topologies within linear multi-agent systems and structure properties of each agent´s dynamics. And the designed output feedback control law can guarantee that the considered linear MIMO multi-agent systems achieve output consensus with respect to a given admissible set. A provided example illustrates applicability of the proposed approach.
