Abstract

In this paper, we study group consensus of heterogeneous multi-agent systems with fixed directed and undirected topologies. Firstly, a class of distributed control protocol is proposed for achieving the group consensus of heterogeneous multi-agent systems by using the neighbors´ information. Then some corresponding sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee the achievement of group consensus. Rigorous proofs are given by using graph theory, matrix theory and Lyapunov theory. Finally numerical simulations are given to verify the theoretical analysis.
