Abstract

In this paper, asynchronously-coupled algorithm is used to solve the consensus problem of second-order multi-agent systems with both communication delay and input delay. By constructing Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, sufficient consensus conditions are obtained for second-order systems under invariant input delays accompanied with time-invariant and time-varying communication delays respectively. The conditions are all in the forms of linear matrix inequality (LMI). Simulation illustrates the correctness of the results.
