Model‐based Fault Accommodation Control of Multiagent Systems

In recent years, consensus problem in multiagent systems (MASs) has been studied extensively. However, when a fault occurs in a MAS, this problem becomes more challenging. In this paper, we present several fault accommodation control schemes for a class of MASs. First, actuator faults are considered in our MASs. Second, a fault detection is proposed, which is constructed based on a residual and threshold value. Third, both passive and active fault accommodation control schemes are presented. Finally, a simulation example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed control method.
