The communication topology of multi-agent systems is represented by a digraph. A new consensus protocol is proposed, and consensus convergence of multigent systems is analyzed based on the Lyapunov stability theory. The consensus problem can be formulated into solving a feasible problem with bilinear matrix inequality （BMI） constrains. Furthermore, the consensus protocol is extended to achieving tracking and formation control. By introducing the formation structure set, each agent can gain its individual desired trajectory. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to show the effectiveness of our strategies. The results show that agents from arbitrary initial states can asymptotically reach a consensus. In addition, agents with high-dimensional can track any target trajectory, and maintain desired formation during movement by selecting appropriate structure set.展开更多
