Multiple-bipartite consensus for networked Lagrangian systems without using neighbours' velocity information in the directed graph

Abstract

This paper investigates the multiple-bipartite consensus problem without considering neighbours' velocity information in networked Lagrangian systems (NLSs). A distributed adaptive control algorithm without using neighbours' velocity information is proposed, which facilitates the practical configuration deployments in the coopetition networks. By borrowing a subtle vector composed of the eigenvector components associated with zero eigenvalue of Laplacian matrix, a novel reference estimated vector is introduced to conduct the stability analysis step-by-step in the coopetition networks. Finally, simulations are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
