摘要
In the paper, an extension of LaSalle's Invariance Principle to a class of switched linear systems is studied. One of the motivations is the consensus problem in multi-agent systems. Unlike most existing results in which each switching mode in the system needs to be asymptotically stable, this paper allows that the switching modes are only Lyapunov stable. Under certain ergodicity assumptions, an extension of LaSalle's Invariance Principle for global asymptotic stability is obtained. Then it is used to solve the consensus reaching problem of certain multi-agent systems in which each agent is modeled by a double integrator, and the associated interaction graph is switching and is assumed to be only jointly connected.
