Consensus Control of Leader–Follower Multi-Agent Systems with Unknown Parameters and Its Circuit Implementation

With the development and progress of Internet and data technology, the consensus control of multi-agent systems has been an important topic in nonlinear science. How to effectively achieve the consensus of leader–follower multi-agent systems at a low cost is a difficult problem. This paper analyzes the consensus control of complex financial systems. Firstly, the dynamic characteristics of the financial system are analyzed by the equilibrium points, bifurcation diagrams, and Lyapunov exponent spectra. The behavior of the financial system is discussed by different parameter values. Secondly, according to the Lyapunov stability theorem, the consensus of master–slave systems is proposed by linear feedback control, wherein the controllers are simple and low cost. And an adaptive control method for the consensus of master–slave systems is investigated based on financial systems with unknown parameters. In theory, the consensus of the leader–follower multi-agent systems is proved by the parameter identification laws and linear feedback control method. Finally, the effectiveness and reliability of the consensus of leader–follower multi-agent systems are verified through the experimental simulation results and circuit implementation.
