State Agreement in Finite Time
arXiv:math/0612675
Abstract
In this paper, we consider finite-time state agreement problems for continuous-time multi-agent systems and propose two protocols, which ensure that states of agents reach an agreement in a finite time. Moreover, the second protocol solves the finite-time average-agreement problem and can be applied to the systems with switching topology. Upper bounds of convergence time are also established. Examples are presented to show the effectiveness of our results.
