Coupling strength represents the interaction intensity between individuals, which is
likely to affect both the convergence and stability properties of multi-agent system. In this
paper, a coupling strength based approach is proposed to study the internal interaction
mechanisms of multi-agent system. Inspired by the interaction behaviors of biological
flocks, three factors, including position, velocity and number of neighbors, are first
proposed to generate its relationship with interaction intensity. Then, coupling strength is
analytically constructed by synthesizing these factors. Finally, two different cases, with
both fixed and varying coupling strength, are simulated to illustrate the effectiveness of
the proposed coupling strength in flocking control applications. Moreover, the effects of
each factor on flocking are extensively studied.
