Distributed Optimisation With Communication Delays

preprint2021arXivOpen access

Abstract

This paper discusses distributed optimization over a directed graph. We begin with some well known algorithms which achieve consensus among agents including FROST [1], which possesses the quickest convergence to the optimum. It is a well known fact FROST has a linear convergence. However FROST works only over fixed topology of underlying network. Moreover the updates proposed therein require perfectly synchronized communication among nodes. Hence communication delays among nodes, which are inevitable in a realistic scenario, preclude the possibility of implementing FROST in real time. In this paper we introduce a co-operative control strategy which makes convergence to optimum robust to communication delays.
