The leader’s dynamics are accessible exclusively to neighboring followers, and communication among followers is bidirectional due to imposed constraints. To manage th e heterogeneity among followers, internal models incorporating dynamic state and output feedback are utilized to accomplish robust output regulation. The output regulation objectives are achieved through the application of distinct control laws tailored for heterogeneous linear followers. The effectiveness of the proposed methods is demonstrated through numerical examples.
