Cooperative Output Regulation of Heterogeneous Multiagent Systems: A Global Distributed Control Synthesis Approach

Agent-wise local design methods to synthesize distributed control gains focus on the individual dynamics of each agent to guarantee the overall stability of the system. They are powerful tools due to their scalability. However, the agent-wise local design methods are incapable of maximizing the overall system performance through, for example, decay rate assignment. On the other hand, design method...
