Abstract :
This article is devoted to consensus control problem for discrete-time higher-order multi-agent systems. A novel distributed control protocol with one-step predictive output feedback is proposed to improve dynamic performance for consensus convergence. It is shown that consensus is reached if and only if there exists a common control gain which simultaneously stabilizes N-1 systems in a special form, where N is the number of agents. A simulation is performed to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
