Title
Control Schemes Based On The Wave Equation For Consensus In Multi-Agent Systems With Double-Integrator Dynamics
Abstract
In this paper, we consider the problem of driving a group of agents communicating through an undirected and weighted network towards a consensus point. We assume that agents obey to double-integrator dynamics and study decentralized control schemes for consensus of the position variables. In particular we revisit control policies proposed in [1] and [2] in the unified framework of Partial difference Equations over graphs and highlight the link between the closed-loop system dynamics and the damped wave equation describing the motion of a free elastic beam.
