Adaptive Fast Finite-Time Consensus for Second-Order Uncertain Nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems With Unknown Dead-Zone

摘要

This paper presents an adaptive fast finite-time consensus (FTC) for second-order uncertain nonlinear (UN) multi-agent systems (MASs) with unknown nonsymmetric dead-zone and external disturbances. In the process of control protocols design, based on the estimation of the dead-zone width that is obtained by using adaptive method, a fuzzy logic dead-zone compensator is adopted to deal with the nonsymmetric dead-zone input phenomenon. Combining finite-time control technique and Lyapunov's relevant theory, a new fast FTC protocol is developed. Based on the basis of radial basis function neural networks (RBFNNs) theories, the unknown nonlinear functions are approximated. Under the presented consensus protocols and adaptive laws, it can be proved that the position errors of arbitrary two agents can reach a small region of zero in finite time as well as the velocity errors. Ultimately, the effectiveness of the designed method is tested via two numerical examples.
