Multi-Agent Systems: Platoon Control and Non-Fragile Quantized Consensus aims to present recent research results in designing platoon control and non-fragile quantized consensus for multi-agent systems. The main feature of this book is that distributed adaptive sliding mode control (SMC) algorithms are proposed to guarantee strong string stability based on modified constant time headway (MCTH) policy. The MCTH policy is used to remove the unrealistic assumption in the most existing literature that initial spacing, velocity and acceleration errors are zero. This monograph investigates the platoon control issue by combining SMC technique with neural network and fuzzy logic system approximation methods.

Linear Systems: Non-Fragile Control and Filtering presents the latest research results and a systematic approach to designing non-fragile controllers and filters for linear systems. The authors combine the algebraic Riccati technique, the linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique, and the sensitivity analysis method to establish a set of new non-fragile (insensitive) control methods. This proposed method can optimize the closed-loop system performance and make the designed controllers or filters tolerant of coefficient variations in controller or filter gain matrices.A Systematic Approach to Designing Non-Fragile Controllers and Filters for Linear SystemsThe text begins with developments and main research methods in non-fragile control. It then systematically presents novel methods for non-fragile control and filtering of linear systems with respect to additive/multiplicative controller/filter gain uncertainties. The book introduces the algebraic Riccati equation technique to solve additive/multiplicative norm-bounded controller/filter gain uncertainty, and proposes a structured vertex separator to deal with the numerical problem resulting from interval-bounded coefficient variations. It also explains how to design insensitive controllers and filters in the framework of coefficient sensitivity theory. Throughout, the book includes numerical examples to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design methods.More Effective Design Methods for Non-Fragile Controllers and FiltersThe design and analysis tools described will help readers to better understand and analyze parameter uncertainties and to design more effective non-fragile controllers and filters. Providing a coherent approach, this book is a valuable reference for researchers, graduate students, and anyone who wants to explore the area of non-fragile control and filtering.

This book focuses on anti-disturbance intrusion- and fault-tolerant consensus control for MASs. The main feature of this book is the successful introduction of event-triggered distributed adaptive feedback control methodology, observer technology, and sliding mode technology to solve the problem of anti-disturbance, intrusion-tolerant, and fault-tolerant control of MAS. Meanwhile, pinning control strategies are proposed to realize the cluster consensus control of MAS. In addition, based on the Nussbaum function, the fault-tolerant control problems of different types of MASs subjected to time-varying unknown nonidentical direction (TVUND) faults are investigated. This book provides a coherent approach and contains valuable reference materials for researchers who wish to explore the area of MAS. Researchers, graduate students, and engineers in the fields of electrical engineering, control engineering, applied mathematics, computer science, and others will benefit from this book.
