Toward the realization of secure and resilient cyber-physical human systems (CPHS), this paper deals withthe distributed secure state estimation problem considering security measure implementation for the systems. We present that the implementation enhances the system resilience, which means that the distributed state estimation can be achieved even if more networks are compromised. We also show that the implementation is coNP-hard, but, on the positive side, the implementation can be solved in polynomial time when the system satisfies a certain condition. this paper further provides a distributed secure state estimator exploiting the security implementation.

this paper solves the vehicle merging problem by trajectory tracking of networked vehicles to combine multiple vehicle streams. Trajectory tracking is achieved withdistributed feed-forward controllers that consider the couplings between the vehicles by modifying the local reference trajectories. For this purpose, the controllers are connected via a communication network. Different communication strategies are discussed and it is shown that the proposed tracking controllers solve the merging problem with arbitrary linear vehicle models.

We investigate the problem of multi-agent reinforcement learning, in which each agent only has access to its local reward and can only communicate with its nearby neighbors. A distributed algorithm based on actor-critic method has been developed to enable all agents to cooperatively learn a control policy that maximizes the global objective function. Simulations are also provided to validate the proposed algorithm. Copyright (C) 2019. the Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

this paper presents a distributed MPC scheme for the class of input-coupled linear systems implemented over wireless networks. the approach allows each agent to achieve reduced communication latency by sending less information to their neighbours. Uncertainties incurred by this delayed and incomplete information are handled by a constraint tightening procedure. Simulation examples demonstrate that for distributedsystems with chain structure, our tightening method is invariant to the number of agents in the network. Moreover, we show that by a proper tuning of latency, an optimized control performance can be achieved. Copyright (C) 2019. the Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

In this paper we study the distributed state estimation of autonomous dynamic systems, under time-invariant communication and measurement delays. In the studied problem, we consider that the deployed network of observer agents cannot determine all the states of the observed plant from their own collected measurements. To reconstruct the correct state estimation, they must collaborate with neighboring agents to agree on the coordinated estimation data. Our current work considers the presence of time-invariant communication and measurement latency of the observer agents, and then following a low-gain approach we propose a framework for constructing distributed observers. Sufficient conditions for the stability of the corresponding observation error dynamics are derived, including an upper bound for the low-gain parameter of the observer equations. An illustrative example is also presented to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical derivations in the paper. Copyright (C) 2019. the Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A predictive triggering (PT) framework for the distributedcontrol of resource constrained multi-agent systems is proposed. By predicting future communication demands and deriving a probabilistic priority measure, the PT framework is able to allocate limited communication resources in advance. the framework is evaluated through simulations of a cooperative adaptive cruise control system and experiments on multi-agent cart-pole systems. the results of these studies show its effectiveness over other event-triggered designs at reducing network utilization, while also improving the control error of the system.

this paper is concerned withthe collision avoidance of moving objects in an uncertain environment. It proposes a networked event-based method for the position estimation of neighbouring objects with sparse communication. the objects are locally controlled and connected by a communication network. Each object possesses a predictor, an event generator and a trajectory planning unit. the trajectories are planned locally and are unknown to the neighbouring objects. For the purpose of collision avoidance the position of a nearby object must be estimated to react on the objects movement. therefore, a set of possible future positions of this object is generated by the predictor. If the set violates a condition, communication is invoked and the predictor is reset. In contrast to literature, this approach does not require sensors or cameras for a measurement and the communication effort is low. the effectiveness of the method is illustrated by a simulation study with two quadrotors.

In this paper, we analyze a network of agents in a partially nested information structure with a common ancestor. We present the prescription approach applied to different permutations of agents and a structural result for optimal prescriptions of control strategies. We demonstrate the proposed approach through an example that aims at establishing time-invariant domains of the prescriptions without assuming a Linear Quadratic Gaussian problem.

We propose a novel state estimation algorithm for consensus dynamics subject to measurement error. We first demonstrate that with properly tuned parameters, our algorithm attains the same equilibrium value that would be attained using the traditional algorithm based on local state feedback (nominal consensus). We then show that our approach improves consensus performance in a particular class of problems by reducing the state error (i.e., the difference between the agent states and the consensus value). A numerical example compares the performance of the distributed algorithm we propose to that of the traditional local feedback scheme. the results show that the proposed algorithm significantly reduces the state error.
