Abstract :
Under an extended proportional-integral (PI) control scheme, a new class of distributed average tracking (DAT) algorithms has been developed for three different kinds of references: references with steady states, references with bounded derivatives, and references with a common derivative. The class of DAT algorithms are further applied to solve the DAT problem for Euler-Lagrange (EL) systems.
