Scale-free linear protocol design for global regulated state synchronization of discrete-time double-integrator multi-agent systems subject to actuator saturation

Abstract: This paper studies global regulated state synchronization of discrete-time double-integrator multi-agent systems subject to actuator saturation by utilizing localized information exchange. We propose a scale-free linear protocol that achieves global regulated state synchronization for any network with arbitrary number of agents and arbitrarily directed communication graph that has a path between each agent and exosystem which generates the reference trajectory.
