Combinatorial Admissibility in Control-Affine Networks
Daniel Zelazo, Louis Theran
We study synchronization of heterogeneous control-affine nonlinear agents interconnected through diffusive (relative-output) measurements. We separate the design into an edge-space…
On two-degrees-of-freedom agreement protocols
Gal Barkai, Leonid Mirkin, Daniel Zelazo
We propose a distributed two-degrees-of-freedom (2DOF) architecture for driving autonomous, possibly heterogeneous, agents to agreement. The scheme mirrors classical servo structur…
Fiedler-Based Characterization and Identification of Leaders in Semi-Autonomous Networks
Evyatar Matmon, Daniel Zelazo
This paper addresses the problem of identifying leader nodes in semi-autonomous consensus networks from observed agent dynamics. Using the grounded Laplacian formulation, we derive…
A Passivity Analysis for Nonlinear Consensus on Digraphs
Feng-Yu Yue, Daniel Zelazo
This work presents a passivity-based analysis for the nonlinear output agreement problem in network systems over directed graphs. We reformulate the problem as a convergence analys…
A Passivity Analysis for Nonlinear Consensus on Balanced Digraphs
Feng-Yu Yue, Daniel Zelazo
This work deals with the output consensus problem for multiagent systems over balanced digraphs by passivity analysis. As the standard diffusive coupling structure only models the…
