This note considers the constrained H-infinity consensus of multi-agent networks with nonidentical constraint sets. An improved distributed algorithm is adopted and a nonlinear controlled output function is defined to evaluate the effect of disturbances. Then, it is shown that the constrained H-infinity consensus can be achieved if some linear matrix inequality has positive solution.
This paper studies the problem of interacting multiple model (IMM) estimation for jump Markov linear systems with unknown measurement noise covariance. The system state and the unknown covariance are jointly estimated in the framework of Bayesian estimation, where the unknown covariance is modeled as a random matrix according to an inverse-Wishart distribution. For the IMM estimation with random matrices, one difficulty encountered is the combination of a set of weighted inverse-Wishart distributions. Instead of using the moment matching approach, this difficulty is overcome by minimizing the weighted Kullback-Leibler divergence for inverse-Wishart distributions. It is shown that a closed form solution can be derived for the optimization problem and the resulting solution coincides with an inverse-Wishart distribution. Simulation results show that the proposed filter performs better than the previous work using the moment matching approach.
