Fixed-Time Integral Reinforcement Learning for Saturated Nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems Under FDI Attacks

RESUMO

The leader-follower formation control problem is investigated for nonlinear multi-agent systems with unknown dynamics, external disturbances, and false data injection (FDI) attacks on actuator channels. The problem is formulated as a zero-sum differential game and solved using the Integral Bellman-Isaacs approach. To address input saturation constraints, a non-quadratic control cost function is incorporated into the optimization problem, leading to a bounded control law. Furthermore, this paper proposes a cost function construction method and develops a critic learning law, which together guarantee the practical fixed-time stability of the system while overcoming the limitations of existing fixed-time reinforcement learning formulations. Finally, the practical fixed-time convergence of both the critic weight estimation error and the leader-referenced formation tracking error to bounded residual sets is rigorously proven. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method under external disturbances, FDI attacks, and input constraints.
