Robust discrete-time non-smooth consensus protocol for multi-agent systems via super-twisting algorithm

作者:

Highlights:

• Firstly, a robust discrete-time non-smooth consensus protocol solves that consensus problem for the first-order leaderless multi-agent systems with external disturbance and discrete-time feedback.

• Then, a discrete-time super-twisting observer is proposed to estimate the multi-agent systems disturbance. Combining the robust discrete-time non-smooth consensus protocol and discrete-time super-twisting observer, we get a new consensus protocol. The superiorities of this method contains two aspects, i.e., the disturbance rejection ability and a smaller consensus error. To the best authors’ knowledge, the presented results in this paper are novel in the literature.
