Data-Based Optimal Synchronization Control for Discrete-Time Nonlinear Heterogeneous Multiagent Systems

This article investigates the optimal synchronization problem for unknown discrete-time nonlinear heterogeneous multiagent systems (MASs). It is very intractable to derive the analytical solutions of coupled Bellman’s equations, which are necessary to overcome this problem. We propose a data-based optimal synchronization control strategy based on a hierarchical and distributed optimal control fram...
