Consensus of Multi-Agent Systems With Unbounded Time-Varying Delays

Abstract
In this note, the consensus problem with infinite time-varying delays for linearly coupled static network is investigated. The delay affects only the off-diagonal terms in continuous-time equations. At first, we define an effective consensus ability index. Then, by using the graph theory and a new concept of consensus, we prove that under some mild conditions, the network can realize consensus. An example is given to show the validity of obtained results.
