Abstract

This chapter overviews consensus algorithms in cooperative control. The motivation for information consensus in cooperative control is given. A literature review on consensus algorithms is provided. Theoretical results regarding consensus-seeking under both time-invariant and dynamically changing communication topologies are summarized. A few specific applications of consensus algorithms to multivehicle cooperative control are described. The organization of the monograph is also introduced.
