Abstract

This paper is concerned with distributed containment control of multi-agent system with multiple stationary leaders under fixed directed network topologies. Under the assumption that communication time-delays in all channels are equal, the Laplace transform is used to study the first-order and second-order multi-agent delayed system with continuous-time. Some sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure the containment of the multi-agent system by stability analysis for transfer function to get conditions and applying final value theorem. Finally,computer simulations show the effectiveness of the conclusion.
