Abstract
This paper handles the distributed adaptive synchronization problem for a class of unknown second-order nonlinear multiagent systems subject to external disturbance. It is supposed to be an unknown one for the underlying external disorder. First, the neural network-based disturbance observer is developed to deal with the impact induced by the strange disturbance. Then, a new distributed adaptive synchronization criterion is put forward based on the approximation capability of the neural networks. Next, we propose the necessary and sufficient condition on the directed graph to ensure the synchronization error of all followers can be reduced small enough. Then, the distributed adaptive synchronization criterion is further explored because it is difficult to obtain the relative velocity measurements of the agents. The distributed adaptive synchronization criterion without the velocity measurement feedback is also designed to fulfill the current investigation. Finally, the simulation example is performed to verify the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed theoretical results.
