Abstract

We will study  the adaptive fast finite-time consensus (FTC) control problem  of second-order multi-agent systems (MASs) with  unknown dynamics and external disturbances in this paper. Based on the basis of radial basis function neural networks theories, we use it to approximate the unknown functions. According to the consensus protocols and adaptive laws, we will prove that velocity errors of arbitrary two agents reach a small region of zero in finite time as well as position errors. Ultimately, the effectiveness of the designed method is tested through a numerical example.
