A local average consensus algorithm for wireless sensor networks
—In many application scenarios sensors need to calculate the average of some local values, e.g. of local measurements. A possible solution is to rely on consensus algorithms. In ...

Analysis of consensus protocols with bounded measurement errors
This paper analyzes two classes of consensus algorithms in presence of bounded measurement errors. The considered protocols adopt an updating rule based either on constant or vani...

Degree Fluctuations and the Convergence Time of Consensus Algorithms
We consider a consensus algorithm in which every node in a time-varying undirected connected graph assigns equal weight to each of its neighbors. Under the assumption that the deg...

Consensus in non-commutative spaces
Convergence analysis of consensus algorithms is revisited in the light of the Hilbert distance. The Lyapunov function used in the early analysis by Tsitsiklis is shown to be the Hi...

Distributed Averaging in Dense Wireless Networks
We consider the effect of network throughput on the convergence of a specific class of distributed averaging algorithms, called consensus algorithms. These algorithms rely on itera...
