Stability and Convergence Properties of Dynamic Average Consensus Estimators

Abstract
We analyze two different estimation algorithms for dynamic average consensus in sensing and communication networks, a proportional algorithm and a proportional-integral algorithm. We investigate the stability properties of these estimators under changing inputs and network topologies as well as their convergence properties under constant or slowly-varying inputs. In doing so, we discover that the more complex proportional-integral algorithm has performance benefits over the simpler proportional algorithm
