Abstract

Summary: This paper studies the leader‐following consensus problem of multiagent nonlinear systems with uncertain parameters and control gain error. On the basis of the theory of impulsive differential equations, the adaptive control technique, and the Lyapunov stability theory, some novel adaptive‐impulsive consensus conditions are given to realize the consensus of a class of multiagent nonlinear systems. Compared with the existing investigations on the impulsive consensus of multiagent systems, the proposed impulsive control protocol with uncertain parameters and control gain error is more rigorous and effective in practical systems. Four numerical simulations are verified to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
