Input Delay Effect on Cluster Consensus in Continuous-Time Networks

  • 1. Bogazici Univ, Dept Elect & Elect Engn, TR-34342 Istanbul, Turkey

Description

In this paper, we investigate the effect of input time-delay on the cluster consensus of multi-agent systems operating in continuous-time. Contrary to the studies on cluster/group consensus in the literature, the clusters are not pre-determined. We investigate the stability of a multi-agent network with fixed input time-delay. The analysis yields the upper bound of time-delay that does not affect the number of clusters and convergence properties of the agents. Theoretical results are illustrated via several simulations.
