In this paper, the issues of average consensus in undirected delayed networks of dynamic agents with impulsive effects are investigated. The primary contribution of this paper is to propose the consensus schemes in undirected delayed networks of dynamic agents having impulsive effects as well as fixed, switching topology. Based on impulsive stability theory on delayed dynamical systems, we derive some simple sufficient conditions under which all the nodes in the network achieve average consensus globally exponentially. It is shown that average consensus in the networks is heavily dependent on impulsive effects of communication topology of the networks. Subsequently, two numerical examples illustrate and visualize the effectiveness and feasibility of our theoretical results.
