Observer-Type Consensus Protocol for a Class of Fractional-Order Uncertain Multiagent Systems

This paper investigates the consensus problem for a class of fractional-order uncertain multiagent systems with general linear node dynamics. Firstly, an observer-type consensus protocol is proposed based on the relative observer states of neighboring agents. Secondly, based on property of the Krone...
