The consensus region design and analysis of fractional-order multi-agent systems

The consensus problem of fractional-order multi agent systems is studied in this paper. To achieve consen sus, a fractional-order observer type consensus protocol based on relative output measurements is pro. posed and stability is also certified theoretically. The notion of consensus region for fractional-orde dynamic is introduced and analysed, A multistep consensus protocol design procedure is presented for given consensus region, Several simulations are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
