Abstract:
This study considers the coordinated control for quasilinear multiagent systems (QMASs). An output feedback predictive control (OFPC) strategy is given to implement both coordination and simultaneous stability and output consensus (SSOC). In the OFPC strategy, a cost function aiming at coordination relationship is minimized by predictive control thus coordination among QMASs is implemented. Further discussion derives a criterion to maintain the closed-loop QMASs realize the SSOC. Finally, two examples are proposed to richly illustrate the availability of the OPFC strategy.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
