The problem of consensus control of linear discrete-time multi-agent systems (MASs) with switching topology is considered in the presence of a leader. The goal of consensus control is to bring the states of all agents to the leader state while providing stability for local agents, as well as the MAS as a whole. In contrast to the traditional approach, which uses the concept of an extended dynamic multi-agent system model and communication topology graph Laplacian, this paper proposes a decomposition approach, which provides a separate design of local controllers. The control law is chosen in the form of distributed feedback with discrete PID controllers. The problem of local controllers’ design is reduced to a set of semidefinite programming problems using the method of invariant ellipsoids. Sufficient conditions for agents’ stabilization and global consensus condition fulfillment are obtained using the linear matrix inequality technique. The availability of information about a finite set of possible configurations between agents allows us to design local controllers offline at the design stage. A numerical example demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
