The system comprises two groups of subsystems, one with access to the exogenous signal and one without, generalizing leader‑following consensus results. The note investigates cooperative output regulation of linear multi‑agent systems. A distributed observer and dynamic full‑information distributed control scheme are employed to solve the problem. The decentralized approach cannot solve the problem.
In this technical note, we consider the cooperative output regulation of linear multi-agent systems. The overall system consists of two groups of subsystems. While the first group of subsystems can access the exogenous signal, the second cannot. As a result, the problem cannot be solved by the decentralized approach. By devising a distributed observer, we can solve the problem by a dynamic full information distributed control scheme. The problem can also be viewed as a generalization of some results of the leader-following consensus problem of multi-agent systems.
