A Distributed Parallel Command Governor Strategy for the Coordination of Multi-agent Networked Systems

A novel distributed Parallel Feedback Command Governor (FB-CG) supervision strategy is presented for multi-agent interconnected networked systems subject to pointwise-in-time constraints which need to be enforced during the overall system operations for coordination purposes. The paper extends some recent results related to this coordination-by-constraint approach by resorting to and extending Sequential Distributed Command Governor ideas. This novel Parallel distributed strategy is fully described and analyzed and it is compared with earlier Parallel Feed-Forward Command Governor (FF-CG) strategies in the final example.
