  • Abstract
    This paper presents a cyclic-small-gain approach to distributed output-feedback control of multi-agent nonlinear systems. Through novel distributed observer and control law designs, the closed-loop distributed system will be transformed into a large-scale system composed of ISS subsystems, the ISS gains of which can be appropriately assigned. The stability of the closed-loop distributed system is guaranteed by the cyclic-small-gain theorem.
