This paper considers the problem of distributed formation scaling of Multi-Agent Systems (MASs) under a switching-directed graph where the scaling of formation is determined by one leader agent. A directed-sensing graph where neighboring agents exchange their relative displacement and a directed-communication graph where neighboring agents exchange the information about formation scaling factor and velocity factors are used in this paper. One leader agent which decides the formation scaling factor as well as the velocity of the group is chosen among agents. It is shown that under a switching-directed graph, the group of agents achieves the desired formation pattern with the desired scaling factor as well as the desired group's velocity if the union of the sensing and communication graphs contains a directed spanning tree.
