摘　　要：This paper addresses the problem of containment control for heterogeneous multi-agent systems subject to Markovian randomly switching topologies and unbounded communication delays.The objective is to design a distributed control strategy that ensures the output of each follower converges to the convex hull formed by the outputs of a group of leaders in mean square sense.A novel distributed observer is proposed by tackling both Markovian randomly switching topologies and unbounded delays.Then,a distributed state feedback controller and a distributed output feedback controller are developed based on the distributed observer,respectively.Finally,simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controllers.
