Abstract

This paper investigates the consensus problem of the second-order multi-agent systems with communication channel constraint on signal amplitude. Communication delays as one kind of channel constraints in the second-order multi-agent systems have been discussed in the recent literature while in this paper consensus problem of second-order multi-agent systems with communication channel constraint on signal amplitude is investigated. A state-dependent switching parameter is introduced into the consensus protocol. A sufficient condition is obtained for the consensus problem of the second-order multi-agent systems with communication channel constraint based on our early work. A simple example is also given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed theorem.
