Multiplex PI-Control for Consensus in Networks of Heterogeneous Linear Agents
In this paper, we propose a multiplex proportional-integral approach, for
solving consensus problems in networks of heterogeneous nodes dynamics affected
by constant disturbances. The proportional and integral actions are deployed on
two different layers across the network, each with its own topology. Sufficient
conditions for convergence are derived that depend upon the structure of the
network, the parameters characterizing the control layers and the node
dynamics. The effectiveness of the theoretical results is illustrated using a
power network model as a representative example.Comment: 13 pages, 6 Figures, Preprint submitted to Automatic
