文摘This paper considers a leader-following tracking control problem for second-order multiagent systems(MASs) under measurement noises and directed communication channels.It is assumed that each follower-agent can measure the relative positions and velocities of its neighbors in a noisy environment.Based on a novel velocity decomposition technique,a neighbor-based control law is designed to realize local control strategies for these continuous-time agents.It is shown that the proposed consensus protocol can guarantee that all the follower-agents track the active leader.In addition,this result is extended to a more general case with switching topologies.Finally,a numerical example is given for illustration.
