Abstract
This paper deals with the consensus problem of the secondorder multiagent systems based on linear system theory By a system transformation the consensus problem is converted to the stability problem of a linear system The secondorder systems considered include the systems with both the fixed topology and the Markov switching topology Necessary and sufficient conditions of consensus or mean square consensus are obtained The results are extended to the cases of the uncertain transition probability rates and timedelay respectively Finally a simulation example is given to show the effectiveness of the presented resultsShengyuan Xu received his PhD degree from the Nanjing University of Science and Technology China in 1999 His research interests include robust filtering and control singular systems timedelay systems multidimensional systems and nonlinear systems Deming Yuan is currently working towards a PhD degree in the School of Automation Nanjing University of Science and Technology His research interests include information consensus of multiagent systems algorithms for distributed optimization and networked cyberphysical systems
