Abstract

A distributed actuator fault-tolerant strategy for fuzzy multi-agent systems is investigated in this paper. The proposed strategy utilizes an adaptive methodology in designing the consensus control. Compared with well-known consensus analysis, this paper devotes to the fault effect in analyzing multi-agent consensus problem. We conducted a Lyapunov stability analysis to unfold the advantages of proposed method in the distributed fault-tolerant control. Simulation example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
