Containment analysis and design problems for general high-order linear time-invariant multi-agent systems with time-varying delays are studied, where the interaction topology is directed. Using the state information of each agent and neighboring agents, a protocol with time-varying delays is constructed, where the motion modes of the leaders can be specified. Based on Lyapunov–Krasovskii stability theory, sufficient conditions for general linear multi-agent systems with time-varying delays to achieve containment are proposed which only include four linear matrix inequalities independent of the number of agents. Moreover, an approach to determine the gain matrices in the protocol is presented. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.
