Abstract
This article considers the semiglobal cooperative suboptimal output regulation problem of heterogeneous multi-agent systems with unknown agent dynamics in the presence of input saturation. To solve the problem, we develop distributed suboptimal control strategies from two perspectives, namely, model-based and data-driven. For the model-based case, we design a suboptimal control strategy by using the low-gain technique and output regulation theory. Moreover, when the agents' dynamics are unknown, we design a data-driven algorithm to solve the problem. We show that proposed control strategies ensure each agent's output gradually follows the reference signal and achieves interference suppression while guaranteeing closed-loop stability. The theoretical results are illustrated by a numerical simulation example.
