Abstract:
This paper studies the leader-following consensus problem in continuous-time multi-agent networks with communications/updates occurring only at random times. The time between two consecutive controller updates is exponentially distributed. Some sufficient conditions are derived to design the control law that ensures the leader-following consensus is asymptotically reached (in the sense of the expected value of a stochastic process). The numerical examples are worked out to demonstrate the effectiveness of our theoretical results.
