The primary objective is to devise controllers for each agent, enabling them to precisely track the average of multiple time-varying reference signals. By averaging these signals, we can mitigate the influence of errors and uncertainties arising dur-ing measurements, thereby enhancing the robustness and stabi-lity of the system. A distributed fixed-time average estimator is proposed to estimate the average value of global reference sig-nals utilizing local information and communication with neigh-bors. Subsequently, a fixed-time sliding mode controller is intro-duced incorporating a state-dependent sliding mode function coupled with a variable exponent coefficient to achieve dis-tributed average tracking of reference signals, and rigorous ana-lytical methods are employed to substantiate the fixed-time sta-bility. Finally, numerical simulation results are provided to vali-date the effectiveness of the proposed methodology, offering insights into its practical application and robust performance.展开更多
