Abstract

This paper is mainly devoted to the second-order consensus problem of multiple agents with different signi.cant inertias in directed networks with fixed and switching balanced topologies. On the assumption that each agent knows the desired constant velocity, if the fixed interaction digraph script G sign is weakly connected, then all agents achieve consensus on their positions with their velocities converging to the desired one. Such group behavior can also be achieved under switching weakly connected topologies, if the agents' inertias satisfy some condition and the switching-frequency is relatively slow. Simulations illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained results.
