H_\infty consensus control of a class of second-order multi-agent systems without relative velocity measurement

This paper studies consensus control problems for a class of second-order multi-agent systems without relative velocity measurement. Some dynamic neighbour-based rules are adopted for the agents in the presence of external disturbances. A sufficient condition is derived to make all agents achieve consensus while satisfying desired H_\infty performance. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to show the effectiveness of our theoretical results.
