Broadcast control is one of decentralized control methods for networked multi-agent systems. In this method, each agent does not communicate with the others, and autonomously determines its own action using only the same signal sent from a…
When networked systems of autonomous agents carry out complex tasks, the control and coordination sought after generally depend on a few fundamental control primitives. Chief among these primitives is consensus, where agents are to converge…
