Abstract
In this paper, we consider the issue of consensus among the agents with heterogeneous dynamics under random link failures that obey Bernoulli distribution. The heterogeneous multi-agent systems (MASs) are composed of hybrid dynamic agents including first-order dynamic agents and second-order dynamic agents, and the communication topologies are assumed to be directed and time-varying. The failure control protocol is designed by randomly utilizing the previous one- or two-step states information sent by the neighbors. A criterion for the heterogeneous consensus is established by constructing augmented systems with nonnegative random coefficient matrices for the switching topologies. With the help of graph theory and stochastic matrix theory, a sufficient condition related to switching topologies is established to ensure the realization of heterogeneous consensus. Numerical examples are finally provided to validate the theoretical result.
