Abstract:Finite-time consensus algorithm for multi-agent systems with communication delays is proposed. Based on the
theory of finite-time Lyapunov stability and matrix theory, the sufficient conditions which guarantee the multi-agent systems
to reach a consensus in finite time are obtained. Moreover, a finite-time consensus protocol is given by appplying the
sufficient conditions, the convergence of the system is analyzed, and the settling time for the system to reach a consensus is
given. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
