Abstract :
On the basis of singular systems, the consensus problem for networks of agents with external disturbances and model uncertainty is investigated in this paper. Systems with time delay on both fixed and switching topologies are discussed. Using singular Lyapunov functions and Riccati inequalities, some robust consensus criteria for networks of agents are established.
