Abstract:In the complex power-driven control system, the existing pinning flocking control strategies have shortcomings in preserving topology connectivity and decreasing power consumption. Therefore, a pinning flocking control algorithm for power-driven multi-agent networks based on local estimation is proposed. Firstly, the power iterative consensus estimation algorithm is used to dynamically estimate the algebraic connectivity of multi-agent network. Then, the algorithm dynamically adjusts individual launch radius according to the estimate of algebraic connectivity and the power restriction, so that it can preserve the global connectivity of the multi-agent network during motion and effectively reduce the power consumption. Finally, the simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
